Although only in his thirties, Dorgon had been leading his troops in battle for more than twenty years. Whether it was the conquest of Mongolia, the attack on Korea, and the countless battles with the Ming army, Dolgon and the Eight Banners Army led by him have never been invincible, and there has never been such a difficult time now.

At the beginning of today's war, Dorgon was still absolutely confident of victory, because for thirty years, the Eight Banners had never been defeated in a frontal battle!

Dolgon believed in the strength of his Eight Banners, and he believed that no army in the world was the match for the Eight Banners when it came to field warfare.

What about the Mongolian Iron Horsemen who once roamed the world? It's not that they have been beaten by the Eight Banners Army, but what about the white pole soldiers and Qi family troops with strong combat power in the Ming Dynasty? Wasn't the Battle of the Hunhe River completely annihilated?

But now, when the cavalry of the cavalry battalion of the attack lost more than half, when he heard that the ironclad infantry was annihilated by the Ming army, Dolgon was really a little scared, the ironclad infantry are the most brave people in the Eight Banners Army, everyone is wearing three layers of armor, the knife is not as good as the spear piercing, it has always been the main force of the Eight Banners to break the formation, tens of thousands of Eight Banners have only selected more than 1,000 warriors, I didn't expect the Ming Army's battle formation was not broken, these more than 1,000 warriors were all killed!

If these were nothing, when Wu Sangui's army rebelled and led 2,000 cavalry and horses to march into the army, resulting in the rout of the fighting army, this was the last straw that overwhelmed Dolgon's defense.

The two armies of Shi Tingzhu and Aobai were routed by the cavalry, and they were being surrounded and cleared by the superior forces of the Ming army, and there was no hope of turning the tables at all. Even if he sent the rest of his troops to rescue, he would only get caught in a battle, and the Ming army still had 50,000 main forces untouched......

At this moment, Dorgon knew that the situation was irreparable. Even if he joins the battle with the last of his army, defeat is inevitable.

And now that most of the troops of the entire Qing Dynasty are here, if they lose all the battles, what should the Qing Dynasty do? What about the hundreds of thousands of family members in Beijing?

At this moment, Dolgon's mind was in turmoil.

"Lord Wang, we are defeated, when we are broken, we will be broken!" Seeing Dolgon's hesitant appearance, Fan Wencheng knew that it was time to do his duty, and stepped forward to persuade.

"Regent, the last general is willing to lead the army to attack, rescue Shi Tingzhu Aobai, and defeat the Ming army!" Bei Ziyue Lego shouted.

Looking at Yue Le's young face, Dolgon shook his head slowly, "I can't save it, if I continue to fight, I have to put everyone on board, pass on my military order, and retreat immediately!" ”

Since there is no hope of victory, how much can be retreated, there is still hope for the Qing Dynasty, if the army is all over, the remaining hundreds of thousands of women and children's families will have no way to live, the Qing Dynasty, the whole of Manchuria is over!

"Regent, are they still fighting with the Ming army?" Yue Le looked at Dolgon in shock, he couldn't imagine that he could say such words as retreat from Dolgon's mouth, for many years, the Eight Banners Army has always been invincible, when did he escape?

"Do what the military orders!" Dorgon said no more, and turned on his horse. The heralds beside him immediately passed on the military order.

After listening to Dolgon's order, many Eight Banner soldiers were confused, and some people became restless, but the military order was never changed, the Eight Banners Army was a disciplined army, even if they were puzzled in their hearts, no one dared to disobey Dolgon's military order.

"Lord Wang, where are we going?" Only Fan Wencheng asked softly.

Now the position of the Qing army is very embarrassing, there are more than 100,000 Ming troops in the north, it is Linqing that has been occupied by the Ming army, Liaocheng Jinan in the south is the territory of the Ming army, and the west is a canal that cannot be crossed, so there are not many ways to retreat.

The nest is in Beijing, so the only way to break through to the north and join up with the 30,000 cavalry of Bolo and Luckedhun.

However, there were more than 100,000 Ming troops in front of them, and it was too difficult to break through the Ming army and break out. So what can be done now is to retreat eastward, get rid of the Ming army, and then march north.

Surrounded by hundreds of cavalry, Dorgon headed east with his remaining 15,000 troops.

"Regent, even if you want to escape, you have to take Wakda 10,000 with you!" Yue Le shouted unwillingly.

Dorgon shook his head, "Do you think it's possible?" Wakda is fighting fiercely with the Ming army, where is the opportunity to withdraw from the battlefield? ”

"But ......"

"Say no more! Listen to the order. Dolgon scolded angrily, and Yue Le had to keep his mouth shut.

Looking at Yue Le's young face, Fan Wencheng shook his head. The situation is already very obvious, if there is no Wakda to stop the Ming army, where can his fifteen thousand people escape? How could the Ming army allow themselves to escape safely?

"Send someone to deliver a letter to Wakda, tell him my decision, let him block the Ming army for a while, and then wait for the opportunity to retreat!" Dorgon coldly ordered.

……

At this time, Wakda had entered the battlefield with 10,000 people, and was fighting with Wu Sangui's 6,000 infantry, not long after the battle, Ma Chuang also arrived with 20,000 people, and 20,000 Ming troops plus 6,000 Guanning army infantry launched a fierce attack on 10,000 banners.

"What?" When Dolgon's heralds arrived in the army and told him Dolgon's orders, Wakda was so shocked that he couldn't believe his ears.

"The regent said that the defeat of today's battle is inevitable, and for the sake of the Qing Dynasty, it is necessary to preserve the vitality as much as possible. Therefore, Bei Ziye, your task is to block for a moment, and then wait for an opportunity to break through. The herald explained Dolgon's order and immediately got on his horse and ran away, leaving Wakda in a daze.

……

"The Qing army is actually going to escape!" After learning about the movements of the Qing army, Chen Yue laughed. With Dolgon's men fleeing, the battle was irreversible. All that remains is to annihilate the Eight Banners on the battlefield, and then send troops to chase the north.

"Lord Wang, it's time for me to get on!" Yu Feng said impatiently. Since the beginning of the battle, his cavalry battalion has been pressed by Chen Yue's side and is not allowed to fight.

Chen Yue nodded, this is the time to dispatch the cavalry.

"Yu Feng, I will order Wu Sangui's 2,000 cavalry to also be under your command, and the task is to pursue the Qing army deserters without giving them any time to breathe!" Chen Yue ordered categorically.

"Yes, Lord Wang!" Yu Feng thumped his chest and went happily.

Soon, a thousand cavalry went out like a gust of wind into the distance.

"Xiao Bing, Wang Meng, Xu Qingtian, Li Daozi, after each of you bring an army to follow Yu Feng's cavalry, pursue the fleeing Qing soldiers, the pursuing army is dominated by Yu Feng, pay attention to the cooperation between the various departments!"

"Yes, Lord Wang!"

Xiao Bing, Wang Meng and other generals agreed in unison, and each led his troops to go. Soon, one army after another drove out and pursued the fleeing Eight Banners Army in the distance.
