Signed to Zhu Cihong, Prince of the Late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 164, Chapter 164, the Duduo tribe goes eastward to Zhili, and the British cannon welcomes guests
Looking at this scene, Dorgon was secretly proud.

Just to have this feeling, to let that old fellow Jierharang know that I, Dorgon, is the one who really gets everyone's support!

Still want to ride on my head?What a dream!
Dorgon calmed down his mood, and said slowly: "Of course, there is a reason for Prince Zheng to say that. You may not know that just a few days ago, a Ming army with a number of about 5 people had left Shanhaiguan set off and began to attack the land of the Qing Dynasty."

After listening to Dorgon's words, the Manchu generals present were shocked.

"Ming people dare to take the initiative to attack the Qing Dynasty?"

"Aren't these people drinking too much?"

"It seems that the people of the Ming Dynasty lost their minds when they beat Li Zicheng. I really thought they could fight against the Qing Dynasty."

The generals of the Qing Dynasty were obviously very confident. After all, they had never lost to Daming in the past so many years.

Dorgon's expression was equally relaxed, and he said with a smile: "I actually thought so too, but after all, we have already brought the main force of the Qing Dynasty here, if there is no expression at this time, of course it is unreasonable. How about this, Duoduo, take an army to attack and let the Ming army know how powerful we are."

After all, Dorgon is now the co-government king with Jierhalang, so he still has to give him some face. Now that he sends troops to launch a tentative attack, at least he can give Jierhalang an explanation when the time comes.

When Duo Duo heard the words, he was naturally very happy to accept the order, and several other young generals from the Manchu and Qing Dynasties asked for a fight one after another, and Duo Ergun all agreed.

The next day, under the command of Duduo, a 5000-strong Manchu army marched towards the east.

Duduo sat on the horse, feeling very happy.

"Finally another battle!"

For this Prince Yu of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, he liked fighting very much, especially seeing the Han people in the Ming Dynasty struggling and helpless under his iron hooves, which would bring him a sense of belonging to a conqueror. pleasure.

And beside Duoduo, several young generals of the Qing Dynasty were also very excited.

One of them said: "Prince Yu, do you think we can reach Beijing this time?"

Duoduo glanced at the speaker, and said with a smile: "It's not impossible, but it's not easy."

Duduo can also be regarded as one of the famous generals of the Qing Dynasty. He knew very well what he was facing, and that was the [-] army of the British Duke.

The Duke of England is now one of the strongest generals in Ming Dynasty, and he can't be crushed casually.

"It would be great if Brother Wang could give me more troops..." Duoduo thought secretly in his heart.

With the fighting power of the Qing army, if Duoduo had 3 instead of [-], he would really have the confidence to fight the British Duke head-on.

It's not the first time that Man Qing has faced Ming Dynasty in recent years.

With this in mind, Duoduo's army stepped into the Taihang Mountains.

Exploratory attack?
For Duduo, there are no temptations in this world, what he wants is real victory!

Bauhinia Pass.

This is a guard post of the Ming Dynasty in Beizhili, and it is also the command base of the British Duke today.

"Jiannu sent an army of over [-] people to enter the Taihang Mountains?" After hearing the news, the Duke of England frowned first, and then quickly loosened his brows in relief.

"It's finally here, so let's have a good time with these Jian slaves!"

For the British Duke, he was very clear about what Zhu Cihong was doing in Liaodong and Liaoxi, and he also knew exactly how risky it was.

Maybe the British Duke can't wipe out all the slaves here, but he can at least drag Dorgon's main force here firmly, giving Zhu Cihong more room to play.

Therefore, this time, the British Duke must let these Jian slaves know what the Ming army is!
The British Duke strode out of the room and gave a loud order: "Come on, blow the horn, assemble!"

The days in the mountains were quite sad for Duoduo.

When Dodo was born, Nurhachi had already unified Jurchen and raised the banner of rebelling against Ming Dynasty.

So he has never experienced the hard-working life of the older generation of Jurchen in Jianzhou in the mountains and forests.

"This damn mountain! How could anyone in the world like such a stupid place?" Duoduo kept cursing.

Behind Duoduo, many Manchu Qing soldiers were slowly advancing, forming a long queue on the steep road in the forest.

After Dodo cursed, he raised his head helplessly and stared at the sky.

Even the sky is mostly blocked by the high and extended cliffs on both sides of the road, only wisps of sunlight are struggling to shine through the shadows of trees on the cliffs to the earth.

Duo Duo shook his head. At this moment, he suddenly understood why his elder brother Dorgon didn't like attacking Daming from this direction.

"In the future, let's come in from the north or Liaodong." Duoduo thought to himself.

Fortunately, this place is so precipitous, so it is impossible for the Ming army to set up an ambush here, otherwise it would be really troublesome.

At this moment, a scout rushed to Duo Duo: "His Royal Highness Prince Yu, just got the news that the Ming army has a post in front, and it seems that there are quite a few soldiers!"

When Duoduo heard the words, he immediately lifted his spirits and said, "How many people are there, three hundred or five hundred?"

The Ming army had outposts in the Taihang Mountains, something Duoduo already knew before he set off.

Even in the most powerful period of Ming Dynasty, the threat from northern Mongolia was very serious. As a border province in the north, Shanxi built many outposts in the Taihang Mountains.

It's just that with the decline of Ming Dynasty, these outposts have basically been abandoned, and they seem to be just shelf goods.

A moment later, Duoduo stood on a small hill in the mountains, staring at the distant post, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth.

"That's it?"

In Duduo's sight, this outpost is basically no different from the ruins, dilapidated.

But I have to say that there are quite a lot of people behind the outpost.

Duoduo said without hesitation: "Come on, go up and give me a run for him!"

The terrain of this outpost is quite dangerous, and it happens to block the only way for Dodo to advance. He must take this place, and Dodo is obviously very confident about it.

Soon, the Manchu Qing army, which has been hundreds of people, launched an offensive.

Shields are necessary, and they began to move forward with the help of various obstacles.

"Bang bang bang!" came the sound of musket firing.

Doduo frowned when he heard the voice, and cursed softly.

The muskets of the Ming army are also quite good. Although the quality is not as good as that of the western contemporaries, they can already play a sufficient role in the battlefield.

In particular, in such a situation where the exit is extremely narrow, many muskets firing salvos at the exit can achieve a coverage effect without dead ends.

This caused many casualties to the Qing army.

But Duduo's battles these years were not in vain. Seeing that the vanguard's offensive was frustrated, he immediately issued a new order: "Hurry up, the archers!"

Relying on the cover of the narrow mountain road, the archers of the Qing Dynasty shot arrows continuously and landed on the Ming army's position.

There was a faint scream, and the sound of muskets gradually became sparse.

Duoduo was delighted in his heart, and said: "If the Ming people really send three to five thousand soldiers to guard this place, then I really can't handle it, but with these three to five hundred people, what can I do?"

There are more than 1 people under Duduo's command, and these 500 people can be exhausted casually!
Doduo gave the order again: "Come on!"

The vanguard rushed up for the second time. This time, due to the help of the archers, the charge went very smoothly.

Under Duduo's distant gaze, a hand-to-hand battle is in progress.

The army of the Manchu Qing was actually stronger than the Ming Dynasty in terms of individual combat ability, which is one of the reasons why the Ming Dynasty has been unable to defeat the Manchu Qing for many years.

This battle seemed to be no exception. After a fierce fight for a while, the Ming army began to retreat and abandoned the outpost.

Seeing this, Duoduo couldn't help feeling more proud: "These so-called wise people are nothing more than that!"

Doduo was triumphant, and entered the outpost with many subordinates.

Looking around, Duoduo said: "Throw the corpses of these Ming people down the cliff!"

Suddenly there were a few cries of vultures in the sky, which was quite appropriate.

At this moment, with a bang, the earth shook.

A shell fell about twenty steps away from Duoduo, instantly killing all the surrounding Manchu soldiers.

Doduo was taken aback and lay down on the ground.

Boom!

Another two shells fell in succession, and the soldiers of the Qing Dynasty were killed and injured more and more.

Doduo's ghost was so angry that he stood up and ran back directly.

"Cannons, Ming people have cannons!"

At this moment, Duduo's back was covered with sweat.

Just a little bit short, Doduo was about to be bombarded to death on the spot by the cannon.

After running wildly for about a minute, Duoduo escaped from the outpost, looked back with lingering fear, and found that the outpost where he was just now had been completely destroyed by shells, and there was no living person inside.

Duoduo's heart was pounding, he really didn't expect that the first time he met the Ming army, he almost died!
Duoduo gritted his teeth: "These smart people are really despicable and shameless!"

Duoduo also wanted to understand at this time, the strategy of the Ming army was actually to use this outpost that didn't seem to have many people to lure the Manchus, and once the main force of the Manchus entered, they immediately launched artillery bombardment and implemented a "beheading tactic" .

If Duduo hadn't been lucky, this tactic would have been successful!
In a mountain depression not far away, after hearing the report, the British Duke also had a bit of regret on his face: "You didn't kill Dodo?"

But soon, the British Duke cheered up, and issued an order in a deep voice: "Let the cannons be well guarded, and these slaves must not be given any chance!"

This time, we can't let the Jiannu here come and go freely on the land of Daming!
