Dorgon didn't understand and asked directly: "How should we fight specifically?"
"This..." Shi Lang was a little embarrassed: "It's not that I don't want to say it, but I don't know the terrain there, so I dare not talk about it on paper."
"Just give me a general idea," Dorgon asked.
Shi Lang thought for a moment and said, "Prepare two ambushes. The first ambush will attract the Ming army's attention, and the second ambush will find a way to burn the Ming army's food and grass! Without food and grass, the Ming army will retreat without a fight!"
"Hahaha!" Dorgon blinked his eyes, laughed and rode away.
Under his command, 20,000 troops attacked Huang Fei's southern army.
He was the first to reach Abu Daligang, seventy miles away.
It was here that Nurhaci defeated the great general Liu Jing.
"Where are Huang Fei's troops?" Dorgon asked.
The scout replied, "Your Highness, Huang Fei's troops have passed Niumao Ridge and are heading towards Jiaha Village. If nothing unexpected happens, they will arrive at Jiaha Village tomorrow morning."
Dorgon counted on his fingers and found that Jiahazhai was thirty miles away from Abudaligang.
Where would be a good place to set up an ambush?
Dorgon turned and looked at Hong Chengchou.
Without waiting for Dorgon to ask, Hong Chengchou spoke first: "Your Majesty, I think we can set up an ambush according to Shi Lang's idea."
"Where is the ambush?"
Hong Chengchou looked at the overcast sky and said quickly, "Set up an ambush at Abdaligang and Jiahazhai."
Dorgon also looked at the sky and smiled: "You want to use the snow to cover up your marching tracks?"
"Your Highness has a keen eye, I admire you!" Hong Chengchou nodded in acknowledgment.
Dorgon waved his hand and ordered: "Send 3,000 soldiers to set up an ambush on the west side of Abudaligang, and immediately attack the Ming army's flank when they hear the shouting and killing."
"Send a thousand soldiers to Jiaha Village. They must hide their whereabouts and wait for the Ming army to fall into chaos before quickly attacking and burning their food and grass."
