Shaling, this place is located in the northeast of Abudaligang, only more than five miles away from the Ming army's Niumaoling Camp.

After the Ming army set up camp in Niumaoling, Liu Shi ordered Qian Zongmao to lead 700 troops into Shaling, but Ma Shi's troops were soon defeated by the Jinying Blue Flag, and Ma Shi only got more than a hundred troops to flee back.

After the Jin army occupied Shaling, Nurhaci immediately set up the Khan's tent here to facilitate command of the war against the Liu Ju troops in Niumaoling.

Two days ago, Liu Shi ordered his son Liu Zhaosun to lead hundreds of servants and thousands of warriors to attack Shaling at night, but the Ming army was discovered by the Jin army shortly after leaving the camp. The two sides fought in a melee, and Liu Zhaosun returned without success. So far, the Ming army never launched any attacks on Shaling again.

The Jin army continued to attack Niomaoling. Daishan commanded the Zhenghong Banner, Mangguertai commanded the Zhenghuang Banner, Amin commanded the Zhengbai Banner, Tang ancient commanded the Yinghuang Banner, Abatai commanded the Yinghong Banner, Yarhaqi commanded the Yinglan Banner, and Daishan commanded the Yingbai Banner, which had launched four major offensives against the Ming army camp of Niomaoling.

Under such a fierce attack by the Jin army, the Ming army suffered a great loss. Ten thousand generals Ying, Hu Guobi, Zhou Dashou, Li Tianfu, Sun Chongliang, Bo Yantu and others were killed one after another, and the officers and soldiers suffered losses of more than 5,000.

When the war was at its most dangerous time, Liu Jing, who was nearly 70 years old, was already wearing armor and preparing to go into battle. Fortunately, there was a strong camp to support. Although the Jin army's offensive was fierce, it could not break the camp in one fell swoop several times.

The Korean army, who were ordered to reinforce Liu Shi's troops, also suffered heavy losses. The right battalion general Li Yiyuan, the right battalion general Shunchuan County magistrate Li Jizong, the central battalion general Dingzhou governor Wen Xisheng, the central battalion general Huang Deqiu, and other generals fought bravely when the war was critical. However, the strength of the Korean army was too weak. As soon as they fought, they were completely wiped out by the main cavalry of the Jin and Huang Banners. Li Yiyuan, Li Jizong and others died one after another, and more than 3,000 officers and soldiers were killed.

The left camp general Jin Yinghe led his army to resist bravely. The other general Zhe Chong Jin Yuanfu led 800 people to follow the camp, Zhe Chong Huang Dezhang, and the new warriors and 800 people to resist the attack of the Jin army with a desperate heart. They also arranged fortifications in time so that the Jin army would not capture the camp.

However, the Korean army was surrounded by the two yellow flags of the Jin Dynasty, and it was difficult to protect themselves. So I helped the Ming army, and my contact with the Ming army was also cut off by the Jin army.

Liu Zhi knew that the Korean army could not support it alone, so he sent Zhejiang troops to rescue him. Unfortunately, the Zhejiang army was blocked by the red flag of Jin Zheng and was difficult to get close to, and instead was surrounded by the Jin army.

At this time, the Jinzhou guerrilla Shang Xueli led his two sons to lead troops to rescue him. Although he successfully broke through the Jin army's defense line and met with the Zhejiang army, the way to retreat to the camp was still called for the Jin army to cut off.

On the other hand, Nurhaci's fourth brother, Yarhaqi, was commanding the headquarters of the Inlaid Blue Banner to attack the southeast corner of the Ming army camp. The defenders here were quite strange. They were very different from the other Ming troops in terms of equipment and clothes, and their combat effectiveness was stronger than the rest of the Ming troops encountered by the Inlaid Blue Banner.

Two times when the Jin army had approached the camp, the defenders in the camp actually tied white cloth strips on their heads, held the musket and shouted at them with strange shouts, catching them off guard.

Yarhazi was furious, but he was helpless.

Military information gathered from all over the place to Shaling. The sound of shouts and cannons in the distance were clearly visible, but there was a silence above the Shaling.

The one guarding Shaling was Nurhaci's personal army, with a number of about 4,000 people. They all had two horses and two armors. The benefits of equipment were by no means comparable to each flag, and the strictness of military discipline was far beyond the red armor of each flag owner.

The white-armored soldiers who did not participate in the war were divided into several batches and took turns to rest. Because of the hasty advance eastward, the Eight Banners did not carry too much supplies, such as tents for the Eight Banners soldiers to rest.

Although it was the end of March, the temperature was still low, but these white-armored soldiers slept casually on the grassland, beside the trees, without any grievances due to the simplicity of the conditions.

When you walk closer, you can even hear snoring one after another.

The Eight Banners soldiers are so sleepy.

Since Sarhu's fight against Ming general Dusong, the Eight Banners have not had a good sleep. Many people have held their horses' necks and pushed them all the way to Abudaligang.

The white-armored soldiers who were not sleeping were holding weapons to watch the surroundings, but when there was a storm, their bows and arrows were aimed.

The ones responsible for the protection of the Khan were Sabihan and Muktan among the "Sixteen Ministers". The former was named Nara, and the latter was Dai Jia. Both of them were old people who followed Nurhaci for twenty years.

After receiving the war report from Erbeile, Muktan wanted to send it to King Khan as soon as possible, but Bailan, the first-class guard guarding outside the King Khan's tent, said that King Khan was sleeping, and said before going to bed that if there were any battle reports from each flag, he would first send it to Mr. Fan and the prince in the west room to see.

Mr. Fan is Fan Wencheng, a Han scholar who voluntarily surrendered in Fushun. The prince in the west room is Li Yongfang, the former governor of Fushun.

"King Khan is also tired, so I will hand it over to those two Han people."

Although the Khan attaches great importance to Fan Wencheng and Li Yongfang, Muktan looked down on these two guys from the bottom of his heart. In his opinion, a Han general who was scared by the Eight Banners and a traitor who wanted to make a fortune in the Great Jin Dynasty was not worthy of the Khan's attention. However, Mr. Gong, who is by Da Beile, is the gentleman who truly deserves the Eight Banners' respect.

Fan Wencheng and Li Yongfang's tent were not far from the east of Nurhaci's tent. When Muktan found the two, they were analyzing the movements of Li Rubai's tribe in the west.

According to spies and Seizuo, Li Rubai's troops were advancing towards Abudaligang. Because the troops did not have many cavalry and carried a lot of baggage, the marching speed was not fast, but they would arrive here in three days at the latest.

Li Yongfang always had some doubts about this information. Li Rubo, whom he was familiar with, was not a brave person. Knowing that Du Song and Ma Lin had been wiped out, how could this second young master Li dare to continue to lead the army and go deeper?

Fan Wencheng also found it strange. Tong Yangxing told him that when King Khan knew the details of the four Ming army, he asked Amin to send a heavy gift to Li Rubai, not asking the other party to retreat, but asking the other party to act slowly.

Li Rubaili accepted it. Although the reply given by the two sides was aware of it, this was something that both sides knew very well. If you, Nurhaci, cannot beat Du Song and Malin, then you cannot blame him Li Rubai; if the result is contrary, Li Rubai will not be sorry for Nurhaci. After all, both sides have a deep relationship, and in name, Li Rubai is also Nurhaci's niece.

But now, Li Rubai's actions are abnormal. As the saying goes, something abnormal must be strange. Li Yongfang and Fan Wencheng guessed for a long time, and both thought that either Li Rubai was crazy and wanted to become famous in battle and revive the Li family in Liaodong; or this guy had lost his military power.

Otherwise, it cannot be explained.

"No matter whether Li Rubai is involved, as long as you take down Liu Jing, it doesn't matter whether he comes or not, but,"
