When Cao Wenzhao received the exact news, Huang Taiji had already far away from Shenlong Gorge and was only one day away from Haizhou.
At this time, it was too late to arrange an ambush.
We could only deploy defenses immediately and accumulate a large number of troops in the east where Huang Taiji entered Haizhou to prevent Huang Taiji from entering Haizhou City.
After Huang Taiji took a long detour, he finally saw Haizhou City from a distance.
But between him and Haizhou City, there were dense guards troops, watching eagerly, ready to deal with their charge at any time.
Huang Taiji stationed his army ten miles outside the city and was not in a hurry to contact the city.
Because the arrival of Hou Jin's reinforcements would definitely reduce the pressure in the city, he was not worried that Haizhou City would be breached after reinforcements arrived.
Huang Taiji carefully observed the troop layout of the Guards, and broke camp and headed north the next day.
The north is the weakest side of the Guards' defense line.
Huang Taiji chose this place as a breakthrough, so the Guards could only move northward.
In a hurry, it was obvious that the soldiers could not move very flexibly, and a big gap soon appeared.
Huang Taiji gave an order, and the Hou Jinjia soldiers rushed towards the northeast and entangled with the Guards.
The Guards' fire muskets were not very useful in this kind of contact, so Zhang Zongling ordered to meet the enemy with bare blades.
In this case, the advantage of the Guards is not very great.
Although the sharpness of the weapons is stronger, when the formation is unstable, the advantages of daily training cannot be exerted.
The bayonets clashed with the cold weapons of the Hou Jin soldiers, but there were not many casualties.
Huang Taiji ordered all his white armor to join the battle.
Finally, a gap was opened, and the vanguard rushed to the north gate.
At this time, Yue Tuo also sent people to attack from the north gate, joined the Zhengbai Banner, and launched a counterattack against the Guards.
Seeing that this was not the case, Zhang Zongling blew the whistle to retreat.
The Guards began to retreat, and then the Jin Army pursued them closely.
Huang Taiji ordered: "Stop chasing, go into the city."
The guard with a red flag was suppressed in the city and beaten for so many days.
Huang Taiji finally found a way to vent his anger.
In addition, Huang Taiji's last time After the defeat, his prestige was greatly reduced, and Xiang Hongqi didn't think highly of him, so he pretended not to hear and continued to pursue him.
After chasing for a while, the Guards ran separately to both sides, revealing the Guards artillery that was waiting in front.
At this time, Wang Zuomin led two infantry battalions to storm the north gate, forcing Zhengbai Qi to flee into the city in panic.
The chasing Xianghongqi was blocked outside the city gate by Wang Zuomin.
About a thousand people ran out of the city with red flags.
Now there were the cannons of the Guards in front, and the fresh troops of the Guards behind them.
The Guards troops in the front also gathered with ill intentions.
Zhang Zongling laughed and said: "Even if you are a treacherous ghost, I want you to drink my foot-washing water.
The white flag ran away, but you can't run away with the red flag now."
The leader with the red flag is Ye Chen.
Looking at the situation, he understands that today there is no return.
He shouted loudly: "Kill one to get enough money, kill two to earn one.
Give it to me."
Courage is certainly good, but how can the Guards infantry in formation be willing to fight with them with bayonets without the help of artillery?
Amidst the roar of artillery shells, the firecrackers fired their guns in an orderly manner, charged them, and fired them.
The charging Houjin soldiers fell to the ground.
This was considered a massacre.
The Hou Jin soldiers were unable to get close to the Guards and had already turned into corpses.
Zhang Zongling couldn't bear it any more, and asked people to surrender: "Don't kill if you put down your weapons, don't kill if you put down your weapons."
Those post-Jin soldiers did not seem to understand the Manchurian dialect of the Guards, and they still moved forward one by one in a futile attack.
Zhang Zongling waved his hand and said: "Since they are unwilling to surrender, then kill them all."

When the battlefield became quiet, all the Hou Jin soldiers had fallen to the ground.
Zhang Zongling shouted loudly: "Clean the battlefield, chop off all the heads, and pile them up in front of the north gate for me."
Huang Taiji and Yue Tuo briefly communicated about the current situation.
At this time, the guards came to report.
The Ming army piled the heads of Hou Jin soldiers into a Jingguan and stood in front of the north gate to demonstrate.
Huang Taiji and others hurriedly came to the top of the city.
When they saw the piled heads, Yue Tuo's eyes were cracked.
He patted the city bricks with his hands and said, "If you don't avenge this, I swear I won't be a human being."
Huang Taiji descended from the city wall with a gloomy face and said to Yue Tuo: "The generals of the Ming army are now very different from before.
They would not do such things as building a capital and a temple before.
Now they have abandoned what they have always valued.
This concept of a benevolent and righteous army is truly terrifying."
Yue Tuo asked cautiously: "Eighth Uncle, how are we going to deal with the Ming army outside the city?"
Huang Taiji said: "Although they are good at attacking cities, they have to pay a huge price to capture Haizhou.
For the sake of the two of us, the Ming army will not be willing."
Huang Taiji was wrong.
After he led his army into Haizhou, Cao Wenzhao immediately sent a letter to Lu Xiangsheng.
After Lu Xiangsheng got the news, he immediately called Liu Xingzuo and said: "I am going to lead two battalions to support Haizhou.
You are in Yaozhou." guard."
Liu Xingzuo asked strangely: "Do we have to capture Haizhou this time?"
Lu Xiangsheng said with a smile: "It's not that we must conquer Haizhou, but we must kill or capture Huang Taiji.
The emperor has always believed that Huang Taiji is as important as Nurhaci.
This time, he was imprisoned in Haizhou, so we can't let him go."
He ran away."
Liu Xingzuo said: "It turns out to be Sibeile, oh, it's the Xiaonu Chief."
Lu Xiangsheng smiled and said: "It doesn't matter.
I know you are used to it and haven't changed it for a while.
By the way, you know Huang Taiji.
Do you think he is very powerful?"
Liu Xingzuo shook his head and said: "I don't see how powerful he is on weekdays, but he is a little different from other slave chiefs.
He is familiar with Chinese books and is friendly to Han people, that's all."
Lu Xiangsheng understood why the emperor valued Huang Taiji so much.
The Hou Jin people alone, no matter how powerful they are, are not a big threat to defeat the Ming army in field battles, because there are too few Hou Jin people.
But if the Later Jin people conquered the Han people, with the help of the Han people, they might become a headache for the Ming Dynasty.
Although Lu Xiangsheng would not imagine that the Later Jin Dynasty could replace the Ming Dynasty, he at least understood that with the help of the Han people, It will be more difficult to exterminate Houjin.
He secretly thought that the emperor must have a very efficient espionage organization, and he even knew the personalities of these slave chiefs well.
With such an emperor here, why worry about establishing slaves and not destroying them?
Since Huang Taiji had the possibility of conquering the Han people, Lu Xiangsheng quickly decided to keep Huang Taiji in Haizhou City at all costs.
Even if it means losing the entire Guards Division, he won't hesitate.
The Ming Dynasty is full of people and can train a large number of soldiers at any time.
The probability of a sensible person appearing in the Later Jin is not too high.
If one appears, one will be eliminated
