Abatai, who was originally full of beard and meat, was very majestic. At this time, it is a different scene.

It was usually very delicately groomed, almost the hair that was breathable through the wind, almost glued together, and the whole trembled slightly with his every move.

A face that has not been washed for I don't know how many days is full of mud and frost, and a few frostbittens silently tell the people present that he has experienced this hardship.

Abatai led Turg and Wang Ke to ride dozens of horses, and like horse thieves in the hinterland of Gyeonggi, he traveled at night, not daring to take the main road, and only dared to look for deserted places along the way. I am afraid that I will become the military exploits of those red-eyed officers and soldiers and village warriors. Finally, I found a gap in the territory of Xuanda and escaped.

Look at the forty lashes, the hall is silent.

After a long time, Huang Taiji's dry and cold voice sounded on the throne.

"Are you guilty, spare Baylor?"

At this time, Abatai had already been beaten to the point that one Buddha and two Buddhas ascended to heaven, and the beads of sweat on his head were dripping down, and the huge pain in his back after the whipping also made his expression distorted. After escaping from the pass, he did not dare to stay more in the territory of the Mongols, lest these Tartars have different intentions, so he just galloped all the way to Liaoxi. The original fat body is now skinny, not to mention that he is physically and mentally exhausted to the extreme, even when he is pampered, it is difficult for him to properly deal with Huang Taiji's questions with his IQ.

Wang Ke, who was kneeling behind him, was a good person.

Although the same hunger and cold were overdrawn, Wang Ke's mind was unusually clear. He was running his brain quickly, analyzing why Abatai was beaten down with a leather whip on his head and face as soon as he arrived in front of Huang Taiji!

In the eyes of Wang Ke's divine stick that understood people's hearts, Abatai's whip was not actually because he lost the battle, only dozens of horsemen followed him and fled back from the pass. Don't say that Huang Taiji had a statement before the expedition. As long as Abatai drags Ning Yuanbo's army in Gyeonggi and Shandong, it will be a great achievement! If the above situation is achieved, the army and horses will be exhausted, and Huang Taiji will also go out of the city thirty miles to greet him.

In fact, in Wang Ke's view, Abatai's task was not only successfully completed, but also exceeded.

Swept Gyeonggi and Shandong prefectures and counties. Li Shouhan was tired of running for more than a month, not to mention, he also escorted more than 100,000 stone grains and rice and a large amount of property obtained from looting out of the customs to receive the Songjin front. If it weren't for the fact that Li Shouhan's army was really difficult to deal with, especially the arrival of the lawless guy of the Li family's eldest young master, I was afraid that Abatai and his Wang Ke's army would rush straight to Henan from southwest Lu, merge with the rogues there, and turn the Central Plains upside down!

It's just that his own master obviously doesn't have a muscular brain, and he shouted in front of so many Manchurian princes and princes Baylor that our army was defeated. It has had a huge negative impact on people's morale.

This had a great impact on the morale of the Qing army, who were competing with the Ming army for endurance in the ice and snow, and now the Liao thieves had reached the most dangerous time. After a series of hard battles, there was no chance of victory, the back road of the old nest in Liaodong was outflanked, and the supply consumption was strict. For this. Presumably, Abatai's clumsy head has some counts, otherwise. Why should he be cautious in the Mongol realm?

At this time, Huang Taiji was waiting for a good news, such as the news that Abatai had won a battle, and everyone knew that after a big defeat, these allies around him were in danger of becoming traitors at any time!

"Your Majesty! Slaves are guilty! It's even a lot of money to spare the master of Baylor! Please ask the emperor to correct the law of the slaves and order the three armies, but please spare the master of the slaves! ”

Prostrate to see blood. Bang bang sound. Wang Ke's posture can be regarded as extremely well done.

"Are you Abatai's minion? You say, "Why have you troubled your master?" How so? Could it be that you made him lose the battle? ”

"On that day, Rao Yu Baylor and the slaves led the military horses to turn around the troupe of Li Shouhan's plays, and when they were tired of running all over Shandong, suddenly one morning when they were marching, the master of Baylor told the slaves. He said that he had a dream at night, and a fairy dreamed with him, saying that he was the goddess of Fokulen, because Rao Yu Belle was her descendant, so he had been protecting him, but he had not been able to do so recently. It is said that the people of Liaodong are in difficulty, and she wants to protect the people of Liaodong, but this time the practice is too against the way of heaven, and the mana consumption of Yu Yuanshen is too great, and she cannot protect Rao Yu Baylor in a short time, so she ordered Rao Yu Baylor to return to the dynasty quickly, and do not stay in Shandong again, otherwise there will be a disaster of blood and light. Wang Ke pleaded guilty and said, I only thought that Lord Belle wanted a woman at that time, so I laughed it off, and now that I think about it, this is clearly a warning from the goddess Fokulun! As a result, I didn't care about Rao Yu Baylor, and still continued to fight against the southern barbarians, but after that, I was defeated repeatedly, and the more and more miserable the fighting, in the end, only a few dozen horsemen were left. ”

Who is Huang Taiji? That brain is that ten bundles like Abatai are not opponents! He immediately understood what Wang Ke meant, this was clearly to use the words of ghosts and gods to boost morale! So he immediately pretended to be surprised and asked, "Rao Yu Baylor, tell me quickly, what does that fairy look like?" ”

Even if Abatai was stupid at this time, he could see that if he wanted to live, he had to say something, but he couldn't find the words, so he had to say, "That fairy, beautiful......"

Seeing that Abatai couldn't speak, Huang Taiji almost jumped up in anger, so he had to grab it and say: "Yes, indescribable beauty, ice muscles and snow skin, fairy wind bones, that is the goddess of Fokulun." After speaking, Huang Taiji got up and knelt on the ground, and after three kowtows, he said: "Thank you to the goddess of Buddha Kulun for your protection, the goddess Bodhisattva's heart, saving me is equal to fire and water, the southern barbarian doesn't know that the goddess is powerful, and now she has been punished by heaven, which is deserved." ”

After teaching Abatai a few words and ordering someone to put on his robe, Huang Taiji slowly glanced at the crowd, looked at the suspicious looks on the faces of the princes and khans of the Eight Banners Mongolia and the Outer Mongolia, and decided to continue to play the role of this cameo god.

"On the night I received the urgent military report from Liaoyang, I also had a dream in which I saw an extremely majestic man serving in front of me in the imperial examination, saying that the southern barbarians would be punished by heaven for doing many evils, so I should not worry. said that I have the protection of the national fortune in the Qing Dynasty, and I will turn evil into good fortune. The god also said that he had sent a tiger and wolf army to devour the southern barbarians. When I woke up, I was going to laugh it off, but I received heavy snow in Liaodong that day, and the snow could bury a military report for an adult man! I even heard that the southern barbarians were frozen by the heavy snow and couldn't move. had to give up Liaoyang and other cities and evacuate in a gray manner. On the way to retreat, countless tigers, wolves and bears rushed out of the mountains and forests to devour the southern barbarians! Now that I want to come here, this god must be my Manchurian ancestor Bukuli Yongshun! Otherwise, how would the emperor serve in front of his horse? Those tigers, wolves and bears attacked the southern barbarians because of his practices, otherwise, how could the tigers, wolves and bears dare to attack the crowds? ”

"I am blessed for ten thousand years! Long live the Great Emperor! ”

"Long live Bogda Khan!"

Under the leadership of Dolgon and Wu Keshan, the prince of Korqin, and other flexible people, the princes of the Manchurian and Han Eight Banners knelt down in unison and cheered loudly, and the Mongolian princes who led the foreign domains also prayed in unison. Even if some people have doubts in their hearts, they have to admit that it is snowing heavily. How did it plummet overnight? If it weren't for the blessing of the ancestral gods, how could there be such weather? Moreover, tigers, wolves and bears are not afraid of huge crowds, and it is even rarer to attack humans in groups.

Isn't it the actions of those soldiers and horses of the Ming Kingdom who are too against the way of heaven and anger the gods?

(Those who have such thoughts, not only the relatives and nobles of Manmeng, but also Wu Sangui, who is painfully and happily inspecting the mountains of various materials in the treasury in Ningyuan City, also thinks in his heart that this success has failed.) Probably because the number of Liao thieves is not exhausted, and the sky will not destroy Cao! ）

"Spare Baylor. This time I went to the hinterland of the Ming Kingdom, although I did not do my full work, but it also bought me more than two months of time for the Qing Dynasty, I respect you! ”

That night, Huang Taiji set up a banquet in Qingyan Temple to entertain Abatai and Wang Ke and others.

Abatai, who was dressed with wound medicine on his body, took Huang Taiji's wine glass and drank it all with gratitude. Before the banquet begins. Huang Taiji has made it clear that Abatai's six Niu Lu men and horses still exist, and they will only be allocated to him after the war is over. How does this not excite Abatai?

"Seventh brother, you can be regarded as having fought with all walks of life in Minggou this time, you might as well comment on it. It's also good that we have a spectrum in our hearts when we meet these centaurs in the Ming Kingdom in the future. "As a guest at the banquet, Dolgon was most concerned about the combat effectiveness of the Ming army in the Guannai.

Abatai's face changed, and a muscle twitched, but when he saw that Huang Taiji, Fan Wencheng, Haoge and others were all stopping their glasses and not drinking, staring at him with a pair of eyes, they had to say.

Nurhachi's eleventh son, Babuhai, cut a piece of meat with a knife and put it in front of Abahai, "Seventh brother, tell your brothers, how is the combat power of the Ming Kingdom's military horses and horses?" How is it compared to the Ming army in Liaodong in front of you? ”

"Rank master, although the military horses from all walks of life in the Ming Dynasty are stubborn, but I should be in the Qing Dynasty for several days, and the bottom is in line with the hearts of the people. It is Li Shouhan's Nanyue Army, although it is known as a fierce army, Li Huamei is even more famous for its artillery fire, and it is still a feather in front of my elite soldiers of the Qing Dynasty! Wang Ke came out to give his masters a round and gave Abatai a little time to think.

"This time I went to the territory of the Ming Kingdom, not to mention anything else, but I had a round of dealings with the military horses in the Ming Kingdom from all walks of life." Abatai swallowed the piece of meat that Babu Hai had given him, with a wry smile on his face.

"The soldiers of the Ming army, the soldiers, the soldiers, the family members, the Nanyue army of Li Shouhan and his son, as well as the Beijing camp of Chongzhen Xiaoer, and the soldiers and horses of the thieves Li Zicheng, Cao Cao and others, all fought with our department!"

"That's it! Although there are many soldiers and horses in the Ming Kingdom, when it comes to elite soldiers who dare to fight, they have to endure hardships and cold, and they have to say that I am a Qing soldier! Wang Ke is like the one in the traditional joke "Picking the Horse Jacket", constantly sewing Abatai and riding down the steps. However, our Rao Yu Baylor is really more developed than his brain.

"Not exactly! Speaking of elites, those who endure hardships and hard work, at least three soldiers and horses are no less than my Qing Dynasty soldiers and horses, or even better! ”

"The Nanyue Army under Li Shouhan's department is the first, and its weapons are proficient, brave and strong, except for not adapting to the northern climate, there are few weaknesses. However, it is not invulnerable! ”

Abatai has finally found something where he is stronger than these brothers and nephews in front of him! That is, Lao Tzu found the weakness of the Nanyue army, but these Nanban almost beat you to pieces!

"Seventh brother! Take a sip of tea and take your time! Babuhai was about to ask, but Dolgon grabbed him and handed him a cup of hot tea to moisten his throat.

"Let's talk about the weakness of the soldiers and horses first, they are good at fighting in formation, if they are fighting in a team of dozens of people. Even a Niu Lu of my Eight Banners Manchuria in the Qing Dynasty may not be able to get benefits! If you don't do it well, you can be beaten by him! However, the personal skills of its sergeants, especially the individual skills of the cavalry, are extremely bad. Moreover, its army is extremely dependent on baggage, and the more baggage it has, the more dependent it is on the road. And the march is not fast. Our Qing soldiers can defeat the enemy by walking. led him to circle all over Shandong, and when he was dragged into chaos in the marching team, he took a hole and bit him down with a piece of meat! ”

"The second is the Beijing camp, which used to be the chicken ribs of the Beijing camp, but in this battle, the bayonet skills of the Beijing camp fire gun horse team were not inferior to the southern Chinese army. Although this generation fights. It is quite a bit of a fox and a fake tiger, and every time the Nanyue Army supports and cheers it up, it is brave and fierce, and vice versa. However, compared with the other units of the Ming Army, they also have the support of the Nanyue Army, and the others are all chased and beaten by our army, but the Beijing camp can chase and beat our army. According to the prisoners' confessions, the Nanyue army once used its own training methods to train the Beijing camp. Although it has never reached the level of the Southern Guangdong Army, but. Compared with other military horses in the Ming Kingdom, it is stronger than a few chips. Compared with Liu Zeqing and others, one of them is about to collapse, and the soldiers and horses of the Beijing camp are difficult to deal with! ”

"However, this generation is all the sons of the Ming Kingdom's Jingshi Xun and nobles, although they are brave and fierce in battle, they also know that they are glorious and proud. Compared with those who have no shame and don't know what honor is Liu Zeqing and others, it is several times stronger. Similarly, if I use my Eight Banners Manchuria and a Niu Lu to fight against it, if it is a battle of thousands of soldiers and horses in Beijing, it is best to leave. Otherwise, you will be bitten by this group of scoundrels, and you will not be bitten in flesh and blood. They will not give up! Every time the soldiers and horses of the Beijing battalion can fight to the death, they are injured in many places, and they are still fighting to the death with swords. If you want to capture the soldiers and horses, it is difficult! However, although this generation is so, it also has fatal points! ”

"Spare Baylor, please speak!" Listening to Abatai's detailed analysis of the Ming army's penetration, the advantages and disadvantages of each Liaodong anti-thief rival were pointed out one by one, and Huang Taiji also put away his contempt and respected him.

"This generation is like a big horse, although it is fierce and tenacious when fighting, but it is not durable to fight, and it is even more gorgeous in clothes and exquisite food. The daily march is only 100 miles before the camp, and the diet and daily life are far from those of ordinary battalion soldiers. In a word, I am not afraid of war, but I am afraid of walking and suffering. If you want to deal with this generation, you just have to let go of the horse's hooves and go! ”

"That's good! Seventh uncle, if we encounter this Nanyue army and the soldiers and horses of the Beijing camp, we will not resist him head-on, just add a whip to the horse's buttocks, and go. According to what you said, these two teams are not going to be able to go and they can't endure hardship! ”

Belle Shuoto, the banner lord who was in charge of Manchuria with red flags, shouted very happily, which can be regarded as saying the thoughts of everyone present, don't go head-on with the Nanyue army, just go, anyway, our cavalry runs faster, and the Nanyue army that relies on the baggage road will not be able to catch up no matter what! He can't catch up, so don't blame us for finding the right time to kill a carbine!

Abatai glanced at this nephew who had been extremely lucky all the way, why didn't he have such luck? casually became the flag owner? In order to strike Shuto and find some balance in his heart, Abatai grinned and began to speak of the third troop.

"The third is the thief, the thief that our army encountered in Shandong, known as the Dragon and Tiger Battalion. In the official documents of the Ming State, it can be regarded as the righteous courage recruited by the eldest prince of Ning Yuanbo in Shandong. Its department is composed of thieves from Li Zicheng and Luo Rucai, who are besieging Kaifeng Mansion, the capital of Henan Province at this moment. Its weapons, firearms, and armor depended on the supply of the Nanyue army, so its actual ability was difficult to estimate. However, his army is cunning and changeable, and he is good at winning over the people, and we were originally in Shandong with the help of Mr. Lai Wang's arm, like a swimming fish. It's a pity that after the thieves came, they broke my foundation and pulled out my minions, and soon our army became a lonely army. The elite of its army lies in the horse team, the horse team has a running fire gun, slightly shorter than the foot gun, every time you see it from a distance, it rushes quickly, and after entering the firing range, it will gallop to both sides, and the projectiles continue to fly into the formation, so that you can't guard against it! Its tactics are similar to the Mongolian fish scale array, and the individual hand-to-hand combat is also fierce, and the two thieves can at least cut a white armor. There was once a Niulu's clothed soldiers, who besieged hundreds of people for this generation, but for a few hours, when our reinforcements arrived, there were only headless corpses all over the ground, and not even a single piece of clothing was left. The greed of this generation is no less than that of my Eight Banner Soldiers! And there are a large number of soldiers, an endless stream of soldiers, it seems that they are endless, every time they kill and injure a person, but after a few days, there are three or five people rushing over, but this is the fatal place of my Eight Banner soldiers. ”

"Rao Yu Baylor, can this generation be weak in battle?" Fan Wencheng Fan of the Third Inner Courtyard didn't dare to speak for a long time, and when he saw that the masters were all in deep thought, he finally found the opportunity to speak and asked for his master Huang Taiji.

"Difficult! This group of thieves fought as fiercely as the Nanyue Army, and their methods of being scoundrels were even better than those of the Beijing Battalion. Compared with these two people, they can fight and run, endure hardship, and endure cold. On that day, he pursued Ben Baylor for five days and five nights without sleep, and chased all the way from Texas to Cangzhou. If they hadn't entered the Gyeonggi territory, their identities would have been too embarrassing, and they were afraid that Ben Baylor's life would have been lost at the hands of this group of thieves! ”

Rao is Fan Wencheng prides himself on being resourceful, but Abatai has experienced it all the way, and there are dozens of circumstantial evidence, so everyone can't help but be afraid! There are only more than 100,000 soldiers and horses in the Eight Banners, and the thieves are often called hundreds of thousands, millions!

If you fight against it, I'm afraid it will be a blessing and a curse!

"Ladies and gentlemen, no matter how fierce the soldiers and horses in his pass are, they are all a group of bastards abandoned by destiny. We have the protection of Fokulun, the minions of the Eight Banners who dare to fight, and we are afraid that the clowns of the Ming Kingdom will not succeed. You still have to prepare your arms for war and strive to get rid of our henchmen before the beginning of spring. Hong Chengchou and Zu Dashou have lived too long. ”

Huang Taiji raised his wine glass, which can be regarded as a summary of tonight's banquet. (To be continued......)
