Chapter 108 Huang Taiji
After Dorgon withdrew his troops, he went directly to Huang Taiji's tent.
Huang Taiji did not look as powerful as Dorgon. He had a big cake face, his face was covered with pockmarks, and his figure was short. However, his eyes were quite deep. There was a sand table in front of him, which contained terrain near Jinzhou, Songshan and other places. Only by knowing his opponents could he win every battle.
Huang Taiji has practiced hundreds of times on the sand table to deal with the Ming army in Songshan City.
"I just wanted to ask you why I suddenly withdrew from the army." Seeing Dorgon coming in, Huang Taiji's face was a little bad.
"Can't fight?" Dorgon said angrily: "Originally, a normal attack was to use a red-clothed cannon to break through the city wall and rush up. What happened? The gunner on our side was shot and killed by the arrows fired from the Ming army."
"What?" Even Huang Taiji was shocked: "Your cannon formation is usually located at a distance of 600 steps from Songshan City. This is a distance of 600 steps. How can the Ming army shoot arrows?"
"But the Ming army came with archers. I couldn't imagine that first shot our gunner, and I sent someone to block the gunner, but the archer was extraordinary. He actually lit gunpowder when the gunner was about to be fired. When the shell was about to be fired, he directly shot arrows with gunpowder, and eventually exploded in the cannon. Several cannons were blown up in a row. This battle could not be fought." Dorgon said in extreme depression.
Huang Taiji, Fan Wencheng, the counselor around Huang Taiji, Ning Wan and others were stunned.
They have fought for so many years, but what Dorgon said is too ridiculous and sounds too incredible.
"You mean that there are archers in the Ming Dynasty who shoot and kill people after 600 steps, and can accurately carry the arrow with gunpowder and shoot into the cannon of the red-clothed cannon at a critical moment?" Huang Taiji asked incrediblely.
"Yes, it's so weird. This battle is really impossible to fight." Dorgon said depressedly: "However, listening to the news from his subordinates, it seems that the number one general of the Ming Dynasty, He Xuan, was here. Yes, it was the one who shot Jiergalang. There was nothing wrong with him before he came. After he came, strange things happened, which was really evil. I doubt that it was what he did."
"Do you doubt it is He Xuan? Indeed, the Ming Dynasty should not have invented new equipment now, so there is only one possibility. He Xuan did all this. This person is indeed a bit tricky." Huang Taiji was behind his back: "Originally, my plan was to use his firepower advantage to collapse the city walls of Songshan City. But now, with He Xuan alone, I am afraid that this plan will not work, and our firepower advantage will become a disadvantage."
"I have to think about him in another way." Huang Taiji's lips couldn't help but show a confident smile: "You guys, no matter how strong He Xuan is, he is only the courage of an ordinary man. The courage of an ordinary man is suitable for the duels of the world, but he cannot win the battle. My strength is not as strong as He Xuan, but my wisdom is a hundred times that of him. I can definitely play with him in my palms. Even if there is an extra He Shen General in the Ming Dynasty, I will be destined to be defeated by me."
When Huang Taiji spoke, he seemed to have a special charm, which made people involuntarily convinced.
Huang Taiji was behind his back, pondering repeatedly, and he had already had some ideas.
...
Songshan City.
The head of the west city wall.
The artillery on the Qing army had completely stopped.
Everyone in the Ming army fell into a carnival.
"That's great, the artillery from the Qing army stopped."
"These days, the Qing army's red-clothed cannons with the advantage of numbers made my scalp numb. However, now with He Shen General, their red-clothed cannons cannot play any role, but our army's red-clothed cannons can bombard their mission. That's great." Yang Guozhu laughed: "If the Battle of Songshan is won, He Xuan, you should plan for the first time."
"This is indeed quite a great achievement." Hong Chengchou also smiled: "I was still having a headache, how to deal with the Qing army's artillery advantages. Now it's much easier to fight."
"I shot the enemy six hundred steps away, my brother's unique skill is really amazing." Su Ding laughed: "I guess the Tartars were stunned directly. Somehow, but when they reacted, they were even more scared away."
The entire city wall entered a sea of joy.
Yes, before a single person died, he collapsed the enemy's offensive and destroyed the enemy's cannons.
"He Shen General is so powerful."
"I have been a soldier for my whole life and have never seen such awesome."
"Yes, I guess the Tartars were stunned."
"Who is there? We will win this battle in Songshan."
"We must win, we must win."
"Defeat the Tartars and restore Liaodong."
The news was only spreading nearby at the beginning, but gradually, under the intentional spread of Hong Chengchou and Yang Guozhu, it was spreading rapidly in all directions. More and more Ming troops heard the news.
In fact, at the beginning, even if they came to Songshan to fight the Qing army, the Ming army still had no confidence. The Ming army fought against the Qing army over the years, and fought repeatedly and defeated repeatedly. After so many failures over the years, they gradually lost confidence. Although their commander Hong Chengchou, although fighting against the peasant army, Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong and others, could hold these two people to the ground to rub. However, as the governor here, the battle against the Qing army was not very beautiful.
Not long ago, the news that He Xuan and Shen General He defeated tens of thousands of Qing troops with one man's strength and shot Jiergalang was heard, which shocked the Ming army and raised a god. But at that time, He Xuan was still far away and could not play a practical role.
Now, He Xuan and He Shen are coming to Songshan City. Once they arrive, they directly offer a big gift and directly bombard the Qing army's red-clothed cannons, making the Qing army dare not use the red-clothed cannons. This is great news. Now, most of the Ming army are more confident in winning.
The generals of the Ming army, such as General Miyun Tang Tong, General Datong Wang Pu and others, were shocked after hearing the news: "In this way, wouldn't it be enough to invite He Xuan when the Qing army was going to bombard me with red cannons? On the contrary, we can firepower to suppress it. General He Shen is worthy of being the number one god general in the world."
