After receiving the urgent report from Zhang Chunsheng on the Hushiha front, Zhang Ping'an, the commander of the Pool Army, sat in front of the map and thought about countermeasures. Zhang Li, the commander of the Eagle Camp who had been by his side, suddenly made a comment: "Boss, don't worry, why am I idle and have nothing to do? Huang Feihong's shameless thing deceived Zhang Chunsheng's baby and asked me to lead troops up and discipline him well!"

Zhang Ping'an was not anxious when he spoke. He turned his face and looked at Zhang Li with a smile and said, "How can I not know what you are thinking? Hey...he...hey! There is nothing different about your grandmother's virtues from Huang Feihong. He Huang Feihong deceived Zhang Chunsheng to grab military merits. You may have the same thoughts as him. With Huang Feihong in Hushiha Maqu Ridge, Dorgon couldn't get any advantage. Just stay here steadily and be a reserve team for me. If I need it, I will push you up whenever I need it!"

Immediately, Zhang Ping'an issued a commander, and Zhang Chunsheng was the main general in the direction of Hushiha, and transferred the newly arrived two thousand young soldiers from Zhang Chunsheng's troops to Huang Feihong's association to participate in the actual combat. Zhang Ping'an knew the ability of the various departments to lead troops very well. Since Zhang Chunsheng said in an urgent report that he had strengthened his artillery force to Huang Feihong, Zhang Ping'an could roughly guess how Huang Feihong would fight this battle when looking at the map. The terrain here in Maquling Ridge is complex and the many valleys are not conducive to cavalry combat. This is also the reason why Gu Xin placed Zhang Chunsheng's mountain troops here earlier.

Especially in Maqu Ridge, there are several mountain roads running through the valley. Unless Dorgon had a fever and insisted on drilling in, the more cautious generals would not attack at will. This Qing army that came to cut off the back of the Ponu Army. If his retreat was confiscated by the Ponu Army, Huang Taiji's wishful thinking would not be in vain. Zhang Ping'an believed that Dorgon, who was smart in military, would not make such low-level mistakes. In order to make military achievements, Huang Feihong would definitely intercept the Qing army at the exit of Maqu Ridge, and then cut off his retreat to force them to fight to the decisive battle. Fighting positions Dorgon is definitely not an opponent of the Ponu Army. Under the premise that the cavalry cannot be used, retreating will become Dorgon's inevitable choice.

The leader of the Qing Dynasty's Yellow Banner Banner, Bezi Dorgon, led the army to break through the border of Miyun's rear guard, and was always feeling uneasy. The terrain here is mountainous and the mountain road is narrow and curved. From the map, it is only about 200 miles away from the tiger stone. In fact, it is definitely more than 300 miles away from the mountain road. Dorgon sent a large number of scouts in front of the army to find out the traces of the Po Nu Army. Dorgon led the army before he was halfway through, and found the traces of the scouts in front of the Po Nu Army. Dorgon was so cold that he was so cold that he had already been prepared for this.

Dorgon knew that there were several special forces in the Ponu Army fighting in the mountains and forests. According to the confession of the Ponu Army scouts captured earlier, the Ponu Army's mountain troops were called mountain troops, and their commander Zhang Ping'an specially formed to adapt to the mountain and forest battle. The Qing Dynasty scouts fought against the Ponu Army's mountain troops in Qingsongling, Guangning, many times. Thousands of experienced Jurchen hunters and scouts suffered heavy losses in front of this army. What made Dorgon feel most uneasy was that the Ponu Army seemed to have intentionally given up on the dangerous valley, as if they wanted Dorgon's army to attack the tiger stone. It was abnormal that it was a monster. Dorgon immediately reported this situation to the Khan Huang Taiji.

Dorgon was not a fool, but the main reason was that he was young and energetic and did not know that he needed to restrain himself as a minister, so he would act taboo to modify the Khan Order. When Huang Taiji ordered him to attack the Miyun guards to attack the rear of the slave army, he immediately felt the anger from Huang Taiji. In addition, Zhang Ping'an blatantly provoked the discord, Dorgon was afraid. The grassland fox wolves used a trick to attack Dorgon's mother and strangled to death to make things happen. In this way, Huang Taiji and several other Beile who were involved in the matter would definitely have suspicion of Dorgon's brothers.

Dorgon then remembered the famous saying that the fox wolf Zhang Ping'an said a long time ago. The victory and defeat of the battlefield had already been decided outside the battlefield. Many years ago, Dorgon did not understand the connotation. Now he understood this very philosophical saying, he regretted it. He should not provoke this cunning fox wolf. Instead, he didn't eat the mutton and made a fishy smell. In desperation, Dorgon discussed with his younger brother Duoduo and retreated to the camp in the Miyun Guard Pass. This time he had to wait for Huang Taiji's Khan orders honestly, otherwise he, as a captain, would have led the Huang Taiji to take away the status of the banner master. To that extent, the three brothers Dorgon who had no strength returned to Liaodong and were slaughtered.

Dorgon did not dare to move around in the Miyun rear guard, which was very consistent with the situation where the Pou Nu Army urgently needed rest and recuperation. Zhang Ping'an planned to delay it for a month. Anyway, the longer the rest of the Pou Nu Army, the more unfavorable the hundreds of thousands of troops blocked the Ming Dynasty. However, Zhang Ping'an's idea of ​​resting the army was broken by receiving an urgent report from Xu Yian from the Ming Dynasty. Xu Yian told the urgent report about the pursuit of the Ming army led by Man Gui, and was encircled and annihilated by the 200,000 troops of the two yellow flags of the Manguertai, the Yue Tuoying Red Flag, the Amin Zhenglan Flag, and the 200,000 troops of the Han army led by Tang Gu in the emergency report.

Although there were 60,000 troops in the pursuit of the Ming army, only 40% of them were fighting. Field battles were not the strengths of the Ming army, and they did not even have a chance to escape in the face of the vicious Qing main force. In this battle, the main force of the Qing Dynasty originally wanted to surround and attack the aid, but after waiting for two days, no Ming army dared to support it. The cavalry led by Wanquandu Si Changliang, who saw that the momentum was wrong, turned around and fled back to the capital. In just one day, the 60,000 army of Mangui was killed or injured. The Datong general Mangui, General Sun Zushou was killed in battle, General Heiyunlong and Ma Dengyun were defeated and captured, and the 60,000 Ming troops were either killed or injured.

This formed an extremely complex situation. The main force of the Qing Dynasty gathered 600,000 Jizhou, Pinggu, Miyun, Huairou, and Sanhe, and they stored nearly 900,000 men and women, a large number of women, girls and children, as well as a large amount of food and goods near Zunhua City. Outside the Ming Pass, the Ponu Army controlled almost all strategic places, from Dushan, Flying Junshan, Kuanhe, Baimachuan and even Tiger Stone Ha. The Ponu Army was closely guarded, completely putting the main force of the Qing Dynasty in the Ming Pass and unable to move. The Qing Dynasty wanted to run away but could not run away. The Ming Dynasty wanted to drive Jiannu out of the pass but could not move. The key points of all this were concentrated on the Ponu Army.

There are two people with the most uncomfortable chaos now, one is Huang Taiji, the Khan of the Qing Dynasty, and the other is Zhu Youjian, the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty. If we want to resolve this chaos, Huang Taiji and Emperor Chongzhen would send officials to discuss conditions with Zhang Ping'an. As for Huang Taiji and Emperor Chongzhen, Emperor Chongzhen was more upset than Huang Taiji. After the entire Manchu and Gui army was wiped out, Emperor Chongzhen realized that he was deceived by the chief assistant Qian Longxi. At this time, Zhu Youjian could not turn the blame on Qian Longxi, because Qian Longxi took the blame before the Manchu and Gui army went to war and resigned. Emperor Chongzhen followed the flow and approved Qian Longxi's memorial for resignation.

Another person who should bear the most responsibility was Sun Chengzong, the Minister of War. As a result, Emperor Chongzhen swept him out of the court. Now all the ministers have seen clearly who should be responsible for the most dangerous disasters invading the pass since the founding of the Ming Dynasty. Now everyone avoided the prime minister of the cabinet in the Ming Dynasty. Anyone knew who would be the prime minister of this cabinet would take the blame for Emperor Chongzhen’s wrong decisions. Three consecutive days of morning court, Emperor Chongzhen Zhu Youjian was obeying the government, just to make the ministers think of a plan to withdraw from the enemy. But every time they discussed the government, they were looking for the culprit. The censors even pointed out that the mourning ceremony of Man Gui was raised after the death of the battle, and gave Man Gui a young master, and Sun Zushou and his son were awarded a hereditary assistant.

Seeing that Jiannu was staying in the Ming Dynasty and the most important New Year Festival for the people of the Ming Dynasty was coming again, this made Emperor Chongzhen feel uncomfortable. In fact, everyone knew in their hearts that it was very simple for Jiannu to withdraw his troops. As long as the shameless Ponu Hou of the Ming Dynasty led his troops back to Ponu City, Jiannu would naturally withdraw from outside the Ming Dynasty. The key is that this is too sensitive and no one dared to say it easily. If anyone says it, it is the treacherous slander referred to by thousands of men. All the ministers of the Ming Dynasty were old foxes, and no one would be willing to stand up and offer suggestions for the Ming Dynasty at this time. If anyone does not know how to advance and retreat, the unlucky one must be the one who talks a lot.

In this way, Emperor Chongzhen sat in the side hall of the platform with a dull eyes, and his hair was covered in black hair for several hours without eating or drinking for a few days. Similarly, Cao Huachun, the eunuch who was holding a pen in the inner court, did not see the knife-dragging scheme used by Qian Longxi, the chief minister of the cabinet, which made Emperor Chongzhen so passive. Seeing Zhu Youjian sitting on the dragon throne, Cao Huachun took a few steps and knelt in front of the emperor and said, "Your Majesty must not hurt the dragon body. The inner minister would not want to go outside the pass with Mr. Sun. The Ming Dynasty defeated the Nuhou to encircle and suppress Jiannu and make contributions to the country. In order to demonstrate the great favor of the emperor, the inner minister was willing to take the imperial edict to the front line to supervise the army!"

Once an outsider was extremely cautious in using words by Emperor Chongzhen, Cao Huachun's words were rich in connotation, which immediately opened up the heart of Emperor Chongzhen. Zhu Youjian was not stupid, and he knew that the key to Jiannu staying in the Ming Dynasty was the shameless Ponu Hou Zhang Ping'an. Cao Huachun had a good idea. Sun Chengzong, who retired, could comfort Zhang Ping'an's restless heart for the imperial envoy. As for the great emperor's grace, Cao Huachun was reminding the emperor Zhu Youjian that Ponu Hou was not easy to fool, and he had to show practical benefits to stop.
