1411 Biography or Ship?
The two pointed to the map and studied for a long time. Dai Shan sighed and said, "Prince! This Shandong army is extraordinary! It is much stronger than the Ming army we used to deal with! Not to mention the sharp guns and cannons, the most critical action is like the wind, the tactics are sharp, and they are also cruel and ruthless. We must deal with it carefully!"
Dorgon said with a sad face: "Yes, I suffered a big loss this time! It caused many men to be unable to return home!"
Dai Shan said, "Your Majesty, there is no need to worry about this matter anymore! After all, when fighting, no one can say that there is a time to win! And if you lose this battle, it doesn't matter, we will win it back!"
Dorgon said: "I'm not worried about this, I'm just worried that some people in my family are going to make trouble again!"
Dai Shan said seriously: "Your Majesty, don't worry! I will fully support you at this time! And I think they should also understand the importance and not make too much trouble!"
Dorgon nodded, expressing his acceptance of Daishan's kindness. The reason why he was able to bring Daishan with him was, on the one hand, because Daishan was old and did not have the intention to compete for power. Now he just wanted to preserve the power of his descendants.
More importantly, I was older and once followed Nurhaci to fight in the most difficult times, so I have a better view of the overall situation! So based on Dai Shan's statement just now, it is very beneficial to him!
Dorgon calmed down for a moment and said, "No matter what, the losses of so many people must be recovered from the Ming army!"
Dai Shan said, "So, has the prince made up his mind?"
Dorgon said: "I have made up my mind! I have divided half of my troops to rush to the upper reaches of Xiaoling River. When the Ming army opposite us reveals chaos, we will attack!"
Dai Shan frowned and said, "But this group of Ming troops did not look like something is wrong! The camp was built with thick and stable, and they didn't even demolish the floating bridge! Are they sure we won't attack?"
Dorgon said: "Maybe they pretend to be calm? After all, they are really short of food at this time, so they dare not reveal flaws!"
Dai Shan said
: "The first person sent back to send a message said that according to the amount of grain stored in Gaotai Fort, the Ming army's supplies should be transported every three days. But if this is the case, Liu Pei should slowly retreat at this time! What's more, Wu Sangui is still stationed in Jinzhou, which means he has a sharp knife behind him. Why is he still confident to confront us across the river? Could it be that its food fell from the sky?"
Dorgon blew and said, "How could food fall from the sky? If it could be from the sky..."
Dai Shan heard Dorgon's voice cut off halfway through, so he looked up at him. Dorgon's face was pale and his forehead was filled with sweat instantly! Dai Shan couldn't help but ask in surprise: "Prince, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Dorgon held the table with his hand, stopped a dizziness in his mind, squeezed out a word from his teeth, and said, "Boat!"
Daishan was also a veteran who had been through the battlefield for a long time. He quickly figured out that the ship Dorgon was talking about was not the one who came to the tent, but the ship's ship! Daishan then thought of the gunboats on the Daling River and Xiaoling River, and then thought of stirring up the hinterland of Liaodong. The source of the army immediately knew that Liu Pei had an extremely powerful navy in his hand!
If the facts were indeed as they imagined, then the so-called food cutoff was a joke! However, Daishan did not blame Dorgon for being careless, because they all grew up on horseback and did not think that the navy was useful at all! When the Later Jin army seized Juehua Island, they didn't know how to use the ship, so they burned all the fire!
Dai Shan's email address reached Babutai, his younger brother, and his heart was thrust! Now it understood that Babutai's 30,000 people were a piece of meat stuffed into the tiger's mouth!
But in order to cut off the food route, Babutai could not leave the vicinity of Gaotai Fort, and could only move in a small range. Is the cavalry that has lost its mobility still called the cavalry? If Liu Pei was cruel to send troops to the place, even these 30,000 people would not be able to escape!
But Babutai was writing battle reports one after another in Gaotai Fort at this time. How many times have they killed today, and they have killed several small groups of Ming troops to investigate tomorrow! They have no idea that these people are just baits that set him in place!
When I first received the battle report, I still praised Babutai for his good fight with a smile! But at this moment, the battle reports were simply death talismans, or simply a notice of Babutai’s death!
Thinking of this, Dai Shan immediately said with a snorkeling: "Prince, send someone to ask Babutai to retreat quickly!"
Dorgon let go of his hand holding the table, leaned his whole body against the back of the chair and whispered: "It's too late!"
Dai Shan said loudly: "Why is it too late? We..."
Dai Shan couldn't continue to talk about this! If they wanted to reach Gaotai Fort from here, they had to send people to bypass Xiaoling River and had to go west for a long distance to avoid the Ming army's cycling. When the person notified arrived at Gaotai Fort, they were afraid that even Babutai's corpse would be cold!
It is easy to send someone to smuggle across the Xiaoling River, but it is too difficult to cross the Ming army camp opposite! Unless you can fly over!
Shishan suddenly remembered something and said, "What should Wu Sangui do?"
Dorgon smiled and said, "What else can I do? At this moment, I don't even care about my own family, let's have a bunch of slaves! Let them die for themselves! Second brother, please go down first, let me think about it carefully!"
Dai Shan opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say? At this time, he felt a little sympathetic to Dorgon!
The Qing Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty have fought for so many years, and they have always won more than defeat! Even if they lose occasionally, they are small defeats, and they have never had such a big defeat! In this case, Dorgon, as the regent, cannot be blamed!
Now Daishan is just thinking that the people behind him must not cause any trouble! At this time, the Qing Dynasty could no longer withstand the tossing!
Daishan left the big tent and immediately arranged for people to find Babutai and notified him to retreat quickly. Daishan didn't know if the news could be delivered? He just did this with a glimmer of hope!
