The reason why Wu Sangui vomited blood and passed out was because he got the news of Wu Yingxiong's death. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

As early as a few months ago, when Wu Sangui crossed the Yellow River, Kangxi had secretly had Wu Yingxiong executed in prison. However, Kangxi has been blocking this news, and when Wu Sangui's troops came to Beijing and Kangxi had fled to the grassland, he let the news go public and let Wu Sangui know.

Gao Dejie, Liu Xuanchu, Wang Shirong and others hurriedly came up, and Gao Dejie pinched Wu Sangui's middle man. After a while, Wu Sangui gradually woke up.

"Kangxi Xiao Mazi! I'm so angry with the old man! The old man wants to send troops to naturalize! I must cut you with a thousand knives and avenge my son! Wu Sangui roared hoarsely, "Someone! Pass on my order to send elite cavalry into the grassland to chase Kang Mazi! Grab Kang Mazi and bring it back to the old man! ”

"Dashuai, don't do it!" Liu Xuanchu hurriedly advised, "The Tartar puppet emperor Kang Mazi killed the prince a few months ago, and the reason why this matter is only made public today is to disturb the hearts of our army!" Make you angry! Dashuai, you must not fall for the Tartars! ”

Wu Sangui gradually calmed down, he thought about it carefully, and gave an order: "Pass my order, immediately recruit the women, children, old and weak in the surrounding villages, and let them build siege weapons!" ”

……

Saiwai Naturalization City, here has become a transit place for the banner people to flee to Beihai, every day there are a large number of banner people with their families, the family in a carriage, the clothed slaves drive the car, from the southeast of the grassland, assembled outside the naturalization city. After most of the banner people arrived at naturalization, they camped outside the city, waited for Kangxi's brigade to arrive, and then walked through the vast steppe together, through the desolate land of Mobei, and arrived at Beihai, that is, Lake Baikal.

However, there were also a few banner people who did not listen to the dissuasion, they were worried that the Ming army would chase after them, and after arriving at Naturalization, they couldn't wait to let the Baoyi slaves drive into the grassland in the north. None of the bannermen who had come with the large contingent came to an end, carrying boxes of gold and silver treasures, and the wagons they followed were full of grain, which made the Mongols on the steppe red-eyed.

From time to time, the Mongols launched attacks on the lone bannermen, killing the bannermen's family and the clothed minions, robbing them of their gold, silver, treasures and grain, and the corpses of the bannermen were dumped in the steppe and the Gobi to feed the wolves.

Some of the bannermen were lucky enough to escape the Mongols, but they did not escape the wolves, and packs of wild wolves attacked the bannermen, tearing them to pieces and eventually turning them into wolf dung on the steppe.

Most of the banner people still did not dare to cross the steppe and the Gobi alone, but waited outside the naturalization city.

Seeing that more and more bannermen gathered outside the city, even Lama Azali, who had been persuading Bulni to oppose the Qing Dynasty, became cautious and did not dare to act rashly.

"There are too many Jurchens! It is estimated that Kang Mazi will come soon, we have missed the best time to do it, and it is not suitable to do it now. Lama Azali said.

Burnny said: "If you really want to rebel, close the city gate and wait for the Ming army to arrive!" The Jurchens did not carry siege weapons, and there were no woods in the steppe to build siege weapons for them. As soon as we close the gates, they will have to make a detour. ”

"But can we hold it?" Lama Azari was skeptical of the Mongols' ability to defend the city.

Whether the Mongols were attacking or defending cities, it was not their forte. Today's Mongols are not the Mongols of the most glorious period of the Mongol Empire, the Mongols of those days, there were cavalry archers who came and went like the wind, there were heavy cavalry that swept everything, and there were the most sophisticated heavy siege weapons in the world, and there were firearms that were ahead of the West. After the fall of the Yuan Dynasty, the Mongols who had fallen back to the steppe lost the weapons produced by Han Chinese craftsmen and degenerated into the tribal era.

Although during the period of the Three Niangzi, the Mongols built a naturalized city on the steppe, they could not even produce iron tools on their own, not only the weapons were degrading, but also the tactics were degrading. Because of this, knowing that Kangxi was coming, even Azari Lama did not dare to try to fight against Kangxi's army.

A huge contingent appeared on the grassland to the southeast, heading towards the Naturalization City. This team is close, and it can be seen that this team is the Kangxi holy car of the Qing Emperor, wrong, Kangxi is already the king of the Qing Dynasty.

Seeing Kangxi's arrival in naturalization, where did Burney dare to slack off? He hurriedly led people out of Guihua City in person and greeted Kangxi outside the city.

On the grassland northeast of the naturalization city, a large army hanging the banner of Zheng Zishuai and the banner of the Mongolian prince Abunai was slowly marching in the direction of naturalization.

"Lord Wang, there are still fifty miles, and we will be able to return to naturalization!" One of Goshha stepped forward and saluted Abneh.

Whether it was Abneh's escort or Zheng's army, it was a pure cavalry unit, and it only took half a day for the cavalry to arrive at a mere fifty miles away.

This mixed army had more than 7,000 Mongolian cavalry and 15,000 Ming cavalry. The Mongol cavalry supplied by Zheng Xi to be armed with weapons was not a herdsman on horseback, but a Mongol cavalry with sophisticated weapons and strong armor. Zheng attacked his own Ming cavalry, including 5,000 dragoons armed with muskets, as well as 3,000 heavy cavalry and 7,000 light cavalry, the composition of the Ming cavalry was more complex, including Han, Koreans, Japanese, Mongols and people from the Jurchen tribes, as well as Cossacks and Russians.

Abnei nodded: "Let's speed up the march, and in just half a day, we can return to naturalization!" When we return to naturalization, we will immediately raise troops and block the retreat of the Jurchen savages! ”

Who knew that Huang Zhao of Zheng Xian's department had an extra heart, and he stepped forward and persuaded Abnai: "Lord, no!" It is likely that the Jurchens have already reached naturalization! We will send scout cavalry to find out the military situation, and if the Jurchens have not yet arrived naturalized, we will hurry up! If the Jurchens have already reached naturalization, we will hold off on our march and wait until it gets dark before attacking them! ”

Abnai thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Okay! Everything depends on General Huang's! ”

Twenty Mongol scout cavalrymen with strong bows on their backs and sabers at their waists rode on tall Don hippos, one man and three horses, and galloped in the direction of naturalization.

More than half an hour later, the defenders at the head of the city north of Guihua City found that twenty cavalrymen had appeared on the grassland in the northeast, galloping towards them. When the cavalry approached, the defenders at the head of the city found that they were Mongols like themselves, but it was clear that the Mongol cavalry was well armed.

"It's definitely the rebels! Bombard them! The Eight Banners Qing soldiers at the head of the city shouted.

Several Han Eight Banner gunners aimed their cannons at the Mongols under the city, and one gunner picked up a torch and stabbed it at the fire door, and a ball of fire erupted from the muzzle of the cannon.
