And at this time, there was news in Shanhaiguan, saying that Xiao Tianjian, the emperor of the Great Middle Dynasty, had gathered 40,000 elite soldiers and horses of the Great Chinese Army after annihilating the Abatai Division, and also rushed to the area of Shanhaiguan, which made the strength of the Great Chinese Army in the Shanhaiguan area surge to 100,000 (the news has a lot of moisture, in fact, even if you add the 20,000 Ming troops under Wu Xiang, it is about 70,000 people, which is still a bit insufficient!). ）

Huang Taiji at this time, all the illusions of breaking through and then controlling the land of Yanyun have been completely shattered, the combat effectiveness of the Dazhong Army is so strong, now they have completely understood, and Huang Taiji and Dolgon, these slave chiefs, have completely seen that with the combat effectiveness of their Jiannu Army, in the case of one to one, they are definitely not the opponents of the Dazhong Army, don't look at them now There are still 120,000 soldiers and horses, it seems that they have a little advantage in terms of strength, but in essence, they all understand that after the main force of the Dazhong Army arrives at Shanhaiguan, This time, they had no chance to break into Shanhaiguan, defeat the Great Zhong Army, and control the land of Yanyun.

So now what should they do now, has been placed in front of them, and then fight in Shanhaiguan? For what? What is the purpose? After the main force of the Great Chinese Army arrives here, it is a joke to occupy the land of Yanyun, is it possible to break through the Shanhai Pass? I don't think so! So staying here and continuing to fight Shanhaiguan has no practical significance, more than 100,000 horsemen eat horses and chew, how much food do they have to consume every day? Staying here is just a waste of their original foundation of the Qing Dynasty.

But withdraw now? It's hard to say, when did they suffer such a big loss since they started the army! If they are withdrawn like this, Ren Huang Taiji, Dolgon, Daishan, Zilharang, and Duoduo...... Waiting for a group of slave chiefs, no one can accept such a result.

Especially Huang Taiji, as the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, he did not catch the fart, only laid down a Ningyuan City, and lost so many people, even his son Prince Wu Haoge, life and death are unknown at this time, I don't know his whereabouts, and now he announces the withdrawal of troops, which will undoubtedly be a huge blow to Huang Taiji's status in the Qing Dynasty, although over the years, he has eliminated the disobedient brothers such as Mang Gurtai and Amin, who are a great threat to him, and consolidated his imperial power in the Qing Dynasty, but this time he returned with a feather, For him, he also can't explain to the courtiers in the clan.

Especially since this south, the battle is basically Dolgon they are fighting, he Huang Taiji except for the fight against Ningyuan, he sat in command, the rest of the basically he did not have any strength, just led the troops to Shanhaiguan, this received the bad news that Abatai's entire army was annihilated, he immediately rolled up the cover to go home to wash and sleep, after this kind of thing went back, it was embarrassing to say it.

There is also a very important reason, which is that Huang Taiji is very afraid of things, before this southward trip, the Mongolian tribes actually had a certain amount of disagreement, which consumed a lot of his effort and strength to hold down these Mongolian tribes, and in addition, in order to deal with the Xingtian Army, he formed the Han Eight Banners, which greatly expanded the strength of the Han Eight Banners.

In history, when Jiannu entered the customs, although the Han Eight Banners were also established, but the soldiers of the Han Eight Banners were only about 3,000 people per banner, and the entire history of the Han Eight Banners was less than 25,000 people when they entered the customs, but in this new era, Huang Taiji learned from Dolgon that the firearms of the Xingtian Army were powerful, in order to deal with the Xingtian Army, he tried his best to expand the strength of the Han Eight Banners, and now the strength of the Han Eight Banners is directly chasing their Manchurian Eight Banners, and even exceeding their Manchurian Eight Banners.

Although at this time, the Mongolian Eight Banners and the Han Eight Banners that went south with the army suffered great losses, but their Manchurian Eight Banners also wiped out a whole banner of soldiers, Huang Taiji actually knew very well that at this time it was impossible for their Qing army to enter the pass according to the original plan and occupy the land of Yanyun, the best choice was to immediately break the wrist of the strong man, give up continuing to attack Shanhaiguan, immediately collect troops and retreat to Liaodong, recuperate soldiers and horses, re-hoard strength, and find an opportunity to repay the "blood debt" with the Dazhong Army in the future.

But Huang Taiji also realized that no matter what, they had already lost this battle, and if they withdrew to Liaodong like this, would the Mongols and Han people of the Mongolian Eight Banners and the Han Army Banner still honestly listen to their slave masters? Huang Taiji asked himself in his heart, but the answer he got was impossible!

The reason why they obeyed their words was because they were under the mutual disunity of the Mongolian tribes, so that they had the opportunity to defeat them separately and force them to take over the command of their slaves, but their control over the Mongolian tribes has never reached a very perfect level, and the establishment of the Mongolian Eight Banners is also based on the cooperative relationship of interests.

These Mongolian banner owners actually have their own small abacus, before they found that the Ming Dynasty was actually a weak Han, it looks huge and strong and unparalleled in the world, but in essence it is very weak, and although the Jiannu side seems to be weak, but compared to the Ming Dynasty, the weak Han, it is much stronger, they these Mongolians can not beat the Ming, and they are not the opponents of the Jiannu, so they can only choose to listen to the words of Jiannu, go against the Ming Dynasty, and follow Jiannu to bully the Ming, Although they know very well that Jiannu is using them as guns and cannon fodder, but working with Jiannu, they can win the battle, and after winning the battle, their Jiannu masters eat meat, and they, the Mongolian tribes, can be given by the master to eat a little leftover bones and drink a mouthful of broth, so to a certain extent, the relationship between their two clans is a relationship of interests.

The last time Dolgon led the troops into the customs, these Mongolian banner owners who accompanied the expedition had already discovered that in the Central Plains, there was a force that could confront Jiannu, that is, the Xingtian Army that had not fully risen at that time, and the Xingtian Army was under the leadership of Xiao Tianjian at that time, and only with weak troops, they fought Dolgon, so many Jiannu troops did not dare to fight with them, so those banner owners of the Mongolian Eight Banners found that in the future, Xiao Tianjian and the Xingtian Army under his command would be the next huge force to rise. It is entirely possible to fight against Jiannu, and at that time, the Xingtian Army had already seen Wang Chengping and Li Lingfeng in Xuanda and northern Jin near the Mongolian steppe, and from time to time they would break into the grassland as horse thieves and loot and slaughter their Mongolian tribes, which to some extent had threatened the survival of their Mongols, and controlled the trade channels between their Mongols and the interior, which threatened the future living space of their Mongols.

Some Mongolian banner owners started to think carefully after that time, and began to arrange for people to secretly go to northern Jin to contact the Xingtian Army at that time, and exchange some tea, salt or grain from the Xingtian Army in northern Jin with mules, horses, cattle and sheep, on the one hand, to meet the needs of their people, on the other hand, they also wanted to secretly befriend the Xingtian Army and leave them a way back.

However, their small actions were soon discovered by the slave chieftain Huang Taiji, and they immediately dealt a blow to them with thunder, and also sent people to destroy several Mongolian tribes who were not very obedient, so that these Mongolians understood that for the time being, they must still listen to Jiannu's words, and must submit to Jiannu in order for them to survive, so these Mongolian banner owners who were cleaned up by Huang Taiji hurriedly expressed their allegiance to Huang Taiji and their Jiannu, so they were not continued to be attacked by Huang Taiji.

But this time...... Huang Taiji felt a headache when he thought about it, not only the matter of the Mongolian Eight Banners, but also the Han Army Banner, although he did not see those Han Army Banner generals directly expressed any intention to rebel, but from the eyes of those Han Army Banner Generals, he still saw that when these people looked at them Jiannu, there was a trace of the previous tame in their eyes, and this alone could think of what these Han soldiers thought.

In the past, the Han people of these Han military banners were afraid of them, that was afraid of them, and they lost one after another, which made these Han people have a fear of their Jiannu in their hearts, and gradually it has penetrated into their bone marrow, in their eyes, Jiannu is the most powerful person in the world, so as long as they want to live, they must listen to them, so although Jiannu re-armed them, but the fear of Jiannu in their hearts made them in front of Jiannu, all like docile sheep, what Jiannu asked them to do, they can only do it honestly, they don't dare to say a word, even if they are forced to die, they don't dare to turn around and resist, they can only die honestly, because they are too afraid of them Jiannu.

But today things are different, these Han people who have long been tamed, suddenly found that in the world, in fact, Jiannu is not the most powerful, there are actually people among them who are better than Jiannu, it's not that they Han people can't beat Jiannu, but they can't be officials, after changing to the Dazhong Army, in fact, these Jiannu are not terrible, they are also in front of the Dazhong Army, they will also be deflated, they will also lose the battle, and even be beaten very badly.

Therefore, these Han soldiers who have long been tamed have a little bit of life in their hearts, although they have not yet shown it, but Huang Taiji still saw a trace of inferiority in their eyes, which made Huang Taiji very uneasy.

Since their father and wild boar skin started with thirteen pairs of armor, the majesty of decades of conquest, the kind of hard shell shaped in the minds of the people of the world, has been smashed in front of Shanhaiguan today, and even after tens of thousands of Jiannu troops finally entered the customs, they were easily eaten by others, and even the bones were not left for them.

Therefore, although Huang Taiji is worried about the safety of his son Haoge, what he is most worried about is that once he leads his troops back to Liaodong with his tail between his tail at this time, these people who have been built by them will no longer be tamed as before, once that happens, can they still deter these people of different races with their total population of less than 200,000 Tartars?

So it seems that now they are withdrawing their troops, which is to preserve their strength, but in fact, after taking these people back, it is an even more terrible thing.

Therefore, after learning the news of the annihilation of Abatai's entire army, there was a mourning in the Jiannu army, and even Jiannu's own people had the idea of retreating, not to mention those Mongols and Han Chinese.

So the Qing army camp immediately sounded a voice demanding the withdrawal of troops, but unexpectedly the slave chief Huang Taiji this time actually tried his best to disagree with the public, and ordered that the troops must not be withdrawn, and they must continue to fight, and even Huang Taiji did not hesitate to secretly invite those generals under his command into his king's tent, and told these people their worries.

After hearing Huang Taiji's worries, the slave chieftains of Daishan, Jilharang, and Dolgon all immediately changed their minds and stopped asking for the withdrawal of troops.

In this way, Huang Taiji first unified the internal opinions, and with the support of Dai Shan and other generals, the opinions of those Mongols and the generals of the Han army could not shake the determination of their masters.

So Huang Taiji summoned all the banner owners in the big tent, first scolded those who proposed to withdraw the troops for a while, and then told them that if anyone dared to ask for the withdrawal of troops at this time, then they would immediately cut off their heads, so that although those Mongolian banner owners and Han army generals were still not convinced, but seeing that these Jianzhou slave chiefs had made up their minds one by one, they could only shut their mouths helplessly.

More than 100,000 Jiannu troops then opened the formation again outside the Shanhai Pass, and made a posture to continue to attack the Shanhaiguan, and batches of soldiers and horses of various flags were once again pulled to the battlefield, and a cannon was also pushed out of the camp by the slave soldiers, and slowly raised the muzzle of the cannon after being erected in the big array.
