Dorgon stared at the north bank blankly. When he saw a red line appearing in the distance, he knew that the north bank was over.

Therefore, when he saw the Qing army opposite him running away like a rat crossing the street, he was indifferent. Because he knew that this situation would inevitably happen. There would be no chance on the other side. Even if Yue Tuo and Haoge's troops were transferred here later, there would be no chance to save the defeat.

Listening to the Ming army shouting "Wan Sheng" on the other side, Dorgon's face looked very ugly. This was the first time he saw this situation. To be honest, he really didn't want to hear it, just hoped that he would never hear the Ming army's shouting in his life.

But this time, I heard it all!

In this battle, the Qing army on the north bank could escape was probably the cavalry. As for the infantry, the Ming army with four legs could not run away. Initial estimates, it would probably lose about 10,000 troops. This would be an unbearable loss for the Qing army, and it would definitely have a great blow to its morale.

Thinking of this, he turned around and looked around the south bank. As expected, as he expected, the morale of the Ming army on the north bank was, the morale of the Qing army on the south bank was as low as the morale of the Qing army on the south bank. Obviously, many people could not accept the fact that the Qing army was defeated.

Turning back, when Dorgon looked at the Ming army on the other side again, suddenly, his eyes bulged and he couldn't believe what he saw.

I saw that the Ming cavalry who had just rolled over, had a variety of mounts under his crotch, and there were all kinds of horses.

Although he was just in his prime, he spent most of his time in the army. Therefore, just one glance could reveal that many of the Ming army on the other side could not be called war horses, and it was impossible to meet the requirements of war horses. What's more, he even found that among the late Ming cavalry, there were people riding donkeys and mules, etc.

Suddenly, he felt a mouthful of old blood want to spurt out.

Anyone who saw the situation just now would think that it was the Ming cavalry coming to reinforce. In fact, it was true that the cavalry that charged in the front was the Qin army and the cavalry in the Yongwei camp. The one behind could only be considered as horse riding (mule and donkey) infantry. It can be seen that many infantry's cavalry is not very good, and they can only barely maintain the horse's back and not fall off.

Such a 20,000 cavalry has a completely different combat power than the imagined 20,000 cavalry. If the Qing army on the north bank really discovered that it was just such a Ming cavalry, it would not have fled everywhere without resistance.

Now that he has fled, it is impossible to have the courage to go to war. Besides, what about the Qing soldiers who have run away, how can they be the opponent of the Ming army with a strong morale?

At first, Dorgon was very regretful, feeling that the war on the North Bank would not be defeated so embarrassingly. If he had fought steadily, if he knew that the Ming cavalry coming to reinforce was just such a thing, he might have escaped some of them.

But after a while, when Dorgon stared at the various pieces of animal power that had been pieced together, he suddenly came to his senses, his face suddenly changed and became extremely ugly. It seemed even worse than when he defeated the battle just now.

Because he found that the Ming army's war was too far beyond his expectations. Almost every step, what the Ming army did was different from what he remembered.

For example, the Yongweiying and Qin army should have been behind the butt of the Qing army, but why did they suddenly appear here? It seems that they had long expected that the Qing army would go from here. Therefore, not only were there disguises in Tianjin, but they also hid so far. What was even more terrifying was the various animal powers under their crotch.

The reason why Dorgon's face looked so ugly was that he realized something. A piece of Ming or Ming army was not scary even if some of their individual troops were elite. Therefore, although the Ming Dynasty was large, the Qing Dynasty could be regarded as nothing.

However, now Dorgon discovered that the Ming army not only united and no longer had a mess, but also the Ming Dynasty's mobilization ability also surprised him very much. Not to mention the donkeys and mules on the other side, he could see that many of them should be horses from rich families, and even many precious breeds, as well as stallions and mares.

For this war, the Ming Dynasty could piece together all these horses. Isn’t it proved how powerful the Ming Dynasty’s mobilization ability is! No matter whether this mobilization ability is, whether it is coercive or voluntary, these are not important, what is important is the result.

Think about the huge territory and so huge manpower and material resources of the Ming Kingdom. If we can really mobilize like this in the future, then how can the Qing Dynasty be just a cold Liaodong?

Even though Dorgon didn't understand the affairs of the Ming court very much, he knew that this was definitely not something Lu Xiangsheng could do. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but turn around and look in that direction, thinking of someone in his heart. Only that person has the ability to collect so many varied land horses, right?

After reaching this conclusion, Dorgon had no intention of seeing the situation on the North Bank. He was particularly heavy and he was also a little confused. If the person in the Forbidden City was really capable, why wouldn't he feel it a few years ago? No matter what, he has been ascended the throne for more than ten years. Those who are really capable should have been revealed long ago!

Not to mention that Dorgon couldn't even understand his mind, he talked about the head of Tianjin. Sun Chuanting had already stood at the battlement, and he could not smile and stroke his beard and look at everything outside the city.

There were cavalry and soldiers chasing the fleeing Tartars everywhere. In many places, there were even groups of Ming people who surrounded the lonely Tartars so that the Ming army could come and arrest them as soon as possible. Or, the more powerful Ming people all started to attack directly, and many people would fight around one Tartar. I guess when the crowds surrounding them scattered, there would be no human-shaped things on the ground.

Since the Tartars entered the pass, it has caused so much suffering to the people of the Ming Dynasty. Now, with this opportunity to take revenge, who will be lenient?

Sun Chuanting thought to himself, his eyes moved again, and he saw the commanding flag guarded by a team of cavalry in the distance, and the three-sided governor Hong Chengchou came over.

So he smiled and went downstairs to greet him.

The war here has ended, and the messengers rushed to the rear of the Qing army.

"What?" Yue Tuo immediately opened his eyes in surprise after hearing the military order, and confirmed loudly, "Qin Bing and Yongwei Camp are north of the Wei River? How is this possible!"

"Did you admit the wrong sign?" Haoge also opened his eyes and shouted loudly, "What the hell is it? Isn't the main force of the Ming army behind? He also transferred me back to guard against it."

When he shouted, Yue Tuo had already come to his senses after the initial shock and immediately said to Haoge anxiously: "Uncle Wang is urgent, there will definitely be no mistakes. The war is important, and reinforcements must be made immediately!"

After hearing this, Haoge couldn't help but mutter loudly: "It's not the Ming army's trick again, what kind of infantry and cavalry separation is it?"

When he heard this, Yue Tuo's face suddenly became extremely ugly, and his eyes looked a little unkind when he looked at Haoge. He ignored Haoge at all, immediately sent an order and rushed to the front army with his men.

This time, as the rear army, they had no infantry at all. This Haoge didn't know what he thought about, but he actually thought of the separation of infantry and cavalry and separation!

When Haoge saw Yue Tuo leaving in a hurry, he turned to look behind, and finally had no choice but to order to rush to the front army. No matter what, no one should violate the military order, otherwise the military order would not be recognized. At least the Qing Dynasty at this time was still more resolutely implemented.

Of course, Ye Bushang learned about such a big disturbance soon, and immediately reported the situation to Lu Xiangsheng.

"Okay!" Lu Xiangsheng couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard this, "Jianlu left in such a hurry, it must be that the war ahead was unfavorable. It seems that our army won the battle in the Weihe River!"

When he heard that Yuetuo and Haoge's troops left in a hurry, he immediately came to the conclusion and was very happy.

To be honest, although he had made careful arrangements in advance, he was still a little worried. The outcome of the war was not something that could be won by carefully arrangements in advance. Various factors may lead to the defeat of the war that he originally thought would definitely win. But now it has been confirmed that the war on Weihe must have been won, and it is very likely that it would be a big victory, which made the mobilization of the Jianlu army so hurry, and even ignored his own side. Thinking of this, Lu Xiangsheng breathed a sigh of relief.

This war, the so-called right time, place, and people, were actually occupied by the Ming Dynasty. Even if Jianlu had the ability to fight than Ming army, and Jianlu's equipment was better than Ming army, it would be useless.

The weather was severely cold and the Wei River was frozen, but the coldest time had passed. The ice surface of the Wei River could not pass by casually, which limited the mobility of the Jianlu reinforcements.

For the Ming Dynasty, Jianlu plundered the people of the Ming Dynasty and did everything evil, so people's hearts would naturally not be on Jianlu's side. Whether it was the people who fled in scattered and fleeing slowed down the counterattack of Jianlu or the resentment of the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty towards Jianlu, they all increased their chances of winning against this war beyond the expectations of the commander.

In the central army tent, when everyone heard Lu Xiangsheng speak so confidently, they were overjoyed. Although they did not participate in the Battle of Weihe, at least they also had a supporting role. After winning a battle, it would be more happy than defeating a battle!

So, Wang Chengen and others began to flatter Lu Xiangsheng. Anyway, after winning such a big victory, the previous loss of Jinan Prefecture seemed less important. Everyone carried the flower sedan chair!

However, when Lu Xiangsheng heard these flatteries, his face became serious, clasped his fists with his hands, bowed to the capital, and said seriously: "The first contribution of this battle should be the emperor. If it weren't for the emperor, we would not be able to launch this war at all, and we could only watch Jianlu plunder the population and materials of our Ming Dynasty come out!"

When everyone heard this, they suddenly remembered that the emperor was making money and supporting animal power. If it weren't for the money to inspire the morale of the army, if it weren't for the animal power to transport troops in time, it would be as Lu Xiangsheng said, and this battle would not be fought at all. Suddenly, they all realized that they were even more capable of flattering the emperor. In the central army's tent, the words of respect for Emperor Chongzhen were like the continuous waves of the Yellow River.

Lu Xiangsheng fell into deep thought after he said it at the beginning. After a while, the sound in the tent became a little lighter, Lu Xiangsheng suddenly said with a serious expression: "Come on, pass on this official military order, withdraw the troops immediately and enter the city to defend!"

"What does this mean?" Gao Qiqian said in surprise when he heard this, "Now our army is in high morale. How can we retreat when we fight the remnant Jianlu?"

When Lu Xiangsheng heard this, he knew that they were blinded by victory. Based on the fact that these eunuchs were all military supervisors, he immediately explained: "Most of the elites of the Jianlu army were actually guarding us against the rear army, because Jianlu believed that our officers were all elites of the Ming Dynasty. Now that this part of the troops has not been lost, the main force of Jianlu is still there. Once they go north to reinforce, they will definitely go south to retaliate against us. With the combat power of these troops in our hands, it is impossible for us to be the opponent of Jianlu. Just one charge, our army will be defeated!"

"No way?" Gao Qiqian was a little confused. "If this is the case, why not defeat me and then leave?"

Lu Xiangsheng did not despise Gao Qiqian, who had a reputation as a military officer, and he couldn't understand such things clearly? He continued to explain patiently: "The Jianlu had defeated the Weihe side, and it must be an emergency situation. The slave chief was eager to save the situation, so he urgently dispatched these cavalry troops to reinforce. However, the reinforcements led by Governor Hong would definitely arrive faster than these Jianlu reinforcements. Our army would definitely win a great victory, and it would be useless if these cavalry went there. In this way, the slave chief would think of our void soldiers. If we could win a battle on our side immediately, for the slave chief, there would be an explanation, and it would also boost the morale of the Jianlu."

Upon hearing this, Gao Qiqian couldn't help but nodded repeatedly and quickly reminded: "Since that's the case, my army should immediately order the withdrawal of troops!"

You have to leave quickly. There are all infantry troops here, and they are pieced together by various guards. If they are caught up by the Jianlu Cavalry, everyone will be ruined.

Since Lu Xiangsheng had already proposed it, he naturally knew it and began to arrange for the withdrawal of the troops. However, he did not follow him, but gathered all the cavalry and barracks in the army, mainly because he did not take them at night. In order to prevent Jianlu from exploring horses to find out the truth, he still had many hiding people in his hands.

Then, he told Wang Chengen and others: "You lead the infantry to retreat first, and I will lead the cavalry to deal with Jianlu. When the Jianlu troops retreat, it will be the day when we report the victory to the emperor together!"

Gao Qiqian and others didn't think much about it. Anyway, they just didn't want them to take risks. Wang Chengen asked a little worriedly: "I only bring more than a thousand cavalry, what's the use? Why don't you go to the big city with the army?"

Lu Xiangsheng smiled and shook his head and said, "It's okay, the war has not ended. As the head coach, how can I withdraw? Just wait and go!"

In fact, he did not express his concerns. Although the Ming army won this battle at present, Jianlu's main force was still there, and the final outcome was not yet decided, so he was a little worried, just afraid that Jianlu would have something wrong, so he stayed.

It is not a problem to have few troops. Lu Xiangsheng has always advocated the elite troops. In the past, he even submitted a memorial to Emperor Chongzhen to form a special force to suppress the bandits, that is, to form a special elite cavalry, raid and attack the bandits.

Now he has cavalry troops in his hands, with strong mobility and no need to fight to the death. Therefore, although he has few troops, he has no burden at all. The only thing he is worried about is that Jianlu has suffered a great defeat and will definitely suffer a lot of losses. What will they do next?

At this time, Emperor Chongzhen, who was far away in the capital, had the news of the eavesdropping seeds from Wang Chengen and Wu Zhong, and he had more information about the war than Lu Xiangsheng who had to use the information to speculate through the news.

Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help but be very happy about this. However, the news could not be announced, so he could only have fun alone.

Therefore, when he was happy, he quickly calmed down. Then, he immediately thought of a very important problem. This problem was probably difficult to solve with Hong Chengchou and Sun Chuanting, and he had to solve it on his own...m.
