Wu Sangui was still hesitating whether to really surrender to the Manchus.At this point, he gradually felt it, and he was almost letting the Prince Rui in front of him lead his nose and come to this day step by step.first promised to help him, gave him hope, and coaxed him to turn his face with Li Zicheng.He really broke up with Li Zicheng, and it became a fire and water, and this kid changed his mind.No wonder this kid is called Prince Rui, sure enough, he has a belly of Taoism, a belly of bad water, but now he is desperate, what can he do if he doesn't surrender Wu Sangui is embarrassed, Dolgon is not in a hurry, he takes a bowl of tea on the side, and occasionally wants Wu Sangui to taste it, it is a new tea before the rain this year, West Lake Longjing.What about the Longjing of the West Lake, how about the new tea before the rain is not the Shanhaiguan cannon that robbed our Han people, the sound of fighting is higher than a while, I heard it really on this Huanxi Ridge, where does Wu Sangui have the heart to drink tea Finally, Wu Sangui made up his mind and said: "Our army is fighting fiercely, this hair shaving thing is probably not suitable at the moment, can you use other methods, wait for the Liukou to be exterminated, and then shave" Dolgon heard that Wu Sangui couldn't hold on, and his words had already brought out the meaning of surrender, but he still did not let go: "Our army is fighting against the enemy, The skull is often used as a recognizance, and those without braids are the enemy.If you don't shave your hair, how can our army distinguish between the Bo army and the rogue "Wu Sangui said: "It can make our army's left arm wrapped in a white cloth for identification." ”This is a possible solution.Besides, it is indeed unrealistic for Wu Sangui's people to suddenly stop fighting and shave their heads in the fierce battle.But Wu Sangui found this method, which was nothing more than to use this method to temporarily delay the past and not shave his head.He's still quite cunning and wants to play tricks.If he doesn't shave his head at this time, when he helps him kill Li Zicheng, he may be even more reluctant to shave his head.How clever Dolgon was, could he not see through his caution and not shave his head, which proved that he was still unwilling to surrender.Dorgon smiled and said, "This method is possible.If you don't shave your head, you won't be able to fully trust your uncle.Bo Ke and the 200 personal soldiers who came with him shaved their heads first to show their loyalty to our Qing Dynasty.As for the soldiers who are locked up, they can be done according to the law of the Lord for the time being. ”Dolgon said to himself, if you want to fool the past, you have to see who I am.You shave my head first, and if you shave your head, you won't be able to grow new hair for a while, and if you go out like this, you don't surrender to me, and see if you have faith and you shaved your head, Lao Tzu doesn't believe that you will let your soldiers not shave, and you will be a traitor yourself, and you will definitely be together.Dorgon's trick is enough to damage.At that time, the hair of the Manchu people was not like what it is now in TV dramas, which is much better.At that time, the Tartar had hair on the top of his head that was only the size of a copper coin on the top of his head, and he braided it into a small braid, which was not only ugly, but also very funny.It's no wonder that Han people refuse to keep braids when they die, it's too ugly Wu Sangui wanted to take advantage of the lack of time to fight, so he shaved his head perfunctory.When the battle was over, he would have room to move, and naturally he would not be so afraid of Dorgon, and his head would not be shaved.Dolgon's words cornered him.Without shaving his head, Dorgon did not help him; Shaving his head, he has really become a traitor who is scolded by thousands of people Dolgon saw him hesitate, and said: "Bo shaving his head now, not only can he make Lone believe, but also send troops to help Bo."
When he came alone, his majesty had already been revealed, and as long as he returned, he should be treated as a king.Bo will enter the king of Pingxi, it is a gratifying thing, why do you hesitate to "At the fifth watch of this night, there was a sudden shout on the side of the north wing city.Liu Zongmin ran to Li Zicheng's camp in a panic and said loudly: "Your Majesty, the official army suddenly launched a counterattack and drove Gu Kecheng out of the northern wing city" Habit has become natural, although the Dashun regime has been established, he still calls the Ming army the official army.Li Zicheng hurriedly got up and went outside the tent to look at the sky.It was the darkest hour before dawn, and it was dark outside, except for the fire in the North Wing City, which flickered from time to time.He pondered for a while and said, "The situation is unknown in the dark night, and the enemy is more familiar with the terrain than me.Gu Kecheng can be temporarily retreated to avoid unnecessary casualties.Wu Sangui doesn't have many soldiers, let's line up again tomorrow morning to fight a decisive battle with him.The turtle in the urn does not have to worry about the gains and losses of one time and one place. ”Liu Zongmin went, but Li Zicheng still went back to sleep.After a fierce battle for a day and a night, he also suffered heavy casualties, and it was not good for him to fight at night, so it was better to wait until dawn to make plans.Although the casualties of the Shun army were not small, Wu Sangui's losses were even greater.Li Zicheng has already decided that in tomorrow's battle, Wu Sangui will not hold on no matter what, and victory is already a foregone conclusion.He didn't know that Wu Sangui concentrated his troops and suddenly increased his troops to recapture the northern wing of the city, just to drive the Shun army far away, and not let Li Zicheng find out when the Qing army entered Shanhaiguan.In the tent of the Chinese army commander of the mighty Tai Dolgon in Huanxiling, Wu Sangui finally decided to shave his head under the coercion and temptation of Dolgon.Dolgon immediately named Wu Sangui as the king of Pingxi on behalf of Shunzhi, and ordered him to rush back to Shanhaiguan, recapture the northern wing city, cover the 40,000 horses of Zhengbai and Baibai, and secretly enter the pass from the north and south water gates and the middle gate in order to launch a surprise attack on the Shun army.After sending Wu Sangui back to Shanhaiguan, Dolgon immediately called Azig and Duoduo and asked him to prepare quietly into Shanhaiguan after the North Wing City was captured by Wu Sangui.He instructed: "You quietly lay in ambush in the pass, and watch me wave the big flag on the mighty platform, so that you can suddenly kill from the pass."
When the battle is made, we must encourage the two armies to fight to the death, just slaughter, do not accept the surrender of the enemy, and do not allow the slightest slack, I want to let Li Zicheng know the power of my Manchu Eight Banners in the first battle, so that he will be afraid from now on and dare not fight against me. ”The two said "obey".Azig asked: "My tenth brother and I are the same as before, we will attack from both sides of the enemy, and then return to the army to outflank us" Dolgon shook his head and said: "The terrain of Shanhaiguan is the sea to the east, so there is no need to attack on both sides."
Duoduo said: "Then break in the middle, and then kill to both sides, disrupting his formation." ”Dolgon looked at him reproachfully and said, "Isn't it good for you to have a little brain?"
Although the tone was blaming, he still loved this younger brother born to a mother.He then explained to the two of them: "Li Zicheng's Zhongquan pro-army is brave and fierce, and it is not comparable to the Ming army.Break through in the middle, and if you can't break through, you will be surrounded by him.I have already asked Wu Sangui in detail, and Li Zicheng is arranged along the east and west of the Shihe River, like a long snake.I guess he will still be like this tomorrow.Come and see," he said, pointing to the map on the table, "On this side of the northern wing city, the terrain is uneven, which is not conducive to the battle of the large army, and Wu Sangui will not attack the Shun army here."
In the same way, the Shun army will not put too many troops here, and this place is the weakest place for the Shun army.The two of you can combine the two flags into one army, and after leaving the city, let the foot of Beishan Mountain cover the army and quietly approach the enemy formation.When the army enters the flat, it quickly launches, breaks through the enemy position in one fell swoop, and then returns to the army, and drives the Shun army to the sea.In this way, the formation of the enemy forces was forced to change, and the left flank was forced to change into the front army.The front army was in chaos and impulsive to the rear army, and it was impossible to organize a counterattack immediately.You must attack without stopping, without giving the Shun army a respite, and drive them into the muddy mud of the seaside tidal flats in one breath.At that point, they will only let us slaughter, and there will be no chance to fight back":
