Weihui Mansion, next to the woods next to a hillock in Xinxiang, a team of nearly 10,000 cavalry rested here. It was the three soldiers of Gao Jie who were mobilized by Chang Yu thousands of miles away. They were ordered to send troops to the capital within seven days. The area cooperates with strategic actions. Of course, for these three guys who have no profit and can't afford to go early, the little eunuch has put enough bait: Just come and take it based on your ability, and whatever you get is yours.
Under the shade of the tree, Gao Jie was gray-haired, shirtless and sweating profusely. He held a water bag and drank a sip of water. He looked around and said, "What the hell, it's hot as hell. I'm so exhausted when I get there. How can I pay him back?" What a p!"
"Do you really want to go all out to do it?" Liu Zeqing, who was lying next to him, sneered: "We each sent three thousand troops. Although it is not many, it is our own capital. Take it easy, brother, don't rush forward foolishly. , I lost all my money and no longer had the confidence to speak to the court. At that time, we became dough, and the court and the little eunuch could knead it as they wanted!"
"No." Huama Liu turned over and sat up: "The dog Tatars are very fierce. If there is a tough battle, our brothers can take it easy and follow Huang Chuangzi and the others first. We can get some from behind. Although this time it is oil and water. The most important thing is to be fat enough but to preserve capital. You can keep the green hills without worrying about running out of firewood. If you destroy your capital, hey, you won’t be able to pick up any firewood in the future.”
Gao Jie nodded thoughtfully: "Our three thousand cavalry each are a bit weak, but together we are an army of ten thousand people. Whether it is killing the enemy or resisting the little eunuch, it is easy to separate, but together we will win." , I think we need to form an alliance, two brothers!"
Liu Zeqing laughed loudly: "I have already intended this, because I don't know what you two think. Now that you have proposed it, let's form an alliance." He looked at Huama Liu.
Liu Liangzuo chuckled: "The trees are big enough to enjoy the shade. It's easy to be tricked by others if you work alone these days. Look, Huang Chuangzi and Zhou Yuji have joined the little eunuch line. If the three of us are still not working together, sooner or later we will be tricked by others." Come on, I agree to this alliance!"
"Okay!" Liu Zeqing and Gao Jie were overjoyed: "We don't have any need for life and death together. We just need to shoulder everything together, eat meat together and advance and retreat together in everything!"
Outside Shanhaiguan, Ningyuan City.
Wu Sangui was sitting in the General Military Mansion with a deep frown on his face, staring blankly at the green water in the tea cup next to his hand. His beloved general Shen Jianghu hurried in from the outside: "Sir, there is news from General Soldier Gao."
"Say it quickly," Wu Sangui quickly straightened his body and said urgently.
General Bing Gao is General Soldier Gao Di of Shanhaiguan. He and Wu Sangui have a close relationship with each other guarding the country. Ever since he heard that the Tatars suddenly entered the customs without knowing it, Wu Sangui was shocked and secretly thought that the Tatars were not good. The responsibility for the oversight of the child sneaking into the customs under his own nose cannot be escaped. The great achievements just made may be ruined!
Wu Sangui, who was restless, suddenly thought about whether he could take the opportunity to send troops to Jinzhou to regain the lost territory. If he succeeded in one fell swoop, he would not only make up for his past mistakes, but even accomplish extraordinary feats and even be granted the title of Bohou.
His heart beat action, so Wu Sangui immediately sent people to do a preliminary investigation and found that the Qing army that had been routed from Ningyuan and hid in Jinzhou City began to withdraw to Shenyang. I couldn't help but be overjoyed, God help me.
So he immediately dispatched troops and generals to take advantage of the cover of wind and snow to send troops to Jinzhou City.
Then, God's calculations are like those of humans, but he was plotted!
It turns out that since Dorgon quietly entered the Pass, Hauge and their army commander Fan Wencheng who stayed in the city were planning something. If Wu Sangui from Ningyuan learned about the Qing army's entry into the Pass, would he take advantage of the victory? What about a false attack on Jinzhou?
should be!
Otherwise, you will know after trying it.
So they acted out a drama that the city was empty and there were no soldiers. Wu Sangui was fooled. Then when Wu Sangui's army arrived outside the city and was about to attack the city, suddenly the Qing army came from the north and the city gate opened wide...
He was tricked!
Wu Sangui was shocked. He fought and retreated under the Qing army's attack from inside and outside. Relying on the strong fighting power of Guan Ning's cavalry, he finally escaped without any danger. However, he no longer dared to attack Jinzhou City and hastily withdrew his troops and returned to Ningyuan to send people. Go to Shanhaiguan Tuogadi to inquire about the news.
"The latest news came from Commander Gao. The Tatars traveled thousands of miles south to Qingzhou Prefecture. The young eunuch led nearly 100,000 troops to pursue and intercept them. It is still unknown what the situation of the battle is now. I only heard that there were several fights on the way and the Tatars did not capture it. What’s so cheap?”
The little eunuch is really not a good person! Wu Sangui sighed deeply. He first fought against more than 100,000 Tatars outside the pass, then hurriedly returned to the capital to defeat hundreds of thousands of rebels in Baoding Prefecture. Then he met Dorgon's 30,000 warriors and was able to defeat them in the capital. The gangsters turned around and chased them all the way for thousands of miles.
Wu Sangui is ashamed of his ability!
With an army of nearly 100,000 people, where did the capital come from? Wu Sangui suddenly raised his eyebrows in confusion. Could it be that all the various troops in the capital were transferred out? Then the capital would be empty!
The imperial court is really willing to go out. Wu Sangui sighed repeatedly. In the past, if the Tatars entered the pass, the imperial court would send troops to the capital to defend it, but all the soldiers and horses would stay away from it. But now the young eunuch is stunned. Chased for thousands of miles.
This year’s wind is different from previous years!
As for the Tatars who went to Qingzhou Prefecture, Wu Sangui's experience naturally guessed Dorgon's thoughts and wanted to eat that big chicken leg.
The reason why Wu Sangui was so concerned about the war in the south was closely related to his future.
When Chang Yu left Ningyuan, Qian and Wan told him to keep an eye on the movements of the Qing army, but Dorgon suddenly entered the country under his nose. Wu Sangui would not be able to escape this oversight responsibility. If the Qing army was there The greater the harm caused by attacking cities and plundering territory within the pass, the greater the responsibility he has to bear. On the contrary, if the Qing army suffered heavy losses or was even surrounded, it would be a good thing.
"I really have a good thing to tell you, sir." Shen Jianghu's mystery aroused Wu Sangui's curiosity: "Tell me about it, please, don't tell me it's something innocuous."
"The British Prince Azig of the Tatars was captured by Li Yan in Xianghe!"
"Ah! This happened!" Wu Sangui was shocked and stood up with great envy: "Li Yan, there is smoke coming out of the ancestral grave. A great good thing has just happened to him."
Then he breathed a sigh of relief, turned to Shen Jianghu and smiled: "This is indeed a good thing. If Duduo or Dorgon can be captured again, the emperor may even be glad that I let these big dogs go because of my oversight." The fish has passed”.
"I'm humble enough to congratulate you sir. If you weren't responsible for this oversight, you would have been promoted to one of the Eight Pillar Kingdoms based on your great achievements in the Ningyuan battle." Shen Jianghu said, cupping his hands.
Wu Sangui sighed, shook his head and sat down again: "Everything must be prepared with both hands."
Shen Jianghu understood this. After he was shocked to hear that the Qing army had entered the pass, Wu Sangui began to send people to Beijing to find connections. He learned that Emperor Chongzhen was furious. However, firstly, the military situation was urgent and Emperor Chongzhen had no time to punish him. Secondly, he supported troops. Since Emperor Chongzhen even looked at his face, he didn't dare to mess with him openly. He only waited until the Tatars were driven out of the customs before settling the accounts with him.
The Wu family was well-established in the capital. Not to mention Wu Sangui himself, who was in a high and powerful position, his father Wu Xiang was also the commander-in-chief of Liaodong at that time. He had a tough relationship with the court. Hearing that something had happened to his son, he began to smoothen the relationship early.
Nowadays, there are very few people who can speak in front of Emperor Chongzhen. The consort Gong Yonggu can be counted as one, but this person is pure and self-sufficient and never gets involved in such things. The other one is undoubtedly the young eunuch who is now in the spotlight. , but he could not find anyone outside when leading his troops, except for a few big shots in the cabinet. After all, even if the emperor decided to punish Wu Sangui, the cabinet would still need the nod, so this became the only way for the Wu family.
The second assistant Wu Zong and the Wu family have always been good friends, so it is natural to rely on him at this time.
But with this line alone, Wu Sangui still felt that it was not safe. At present, the court, especially Emperor Chongzhen himself, was gradually leaning towards emphasizing military force and suppressing civility due to the emergence of young eunuchs. The voice of military attachés, especially generals who led troops in battle, became more and more important.
In terms of military exploits, no one can compare with the young eunuch recently, and he is the confidant of Emperor Chongzhen and has the most weight. Wu Sangui feels that the two of them cooperated happily when they were in Ningyuan, and he should say a few good words for him when the time comes.
Besides the little eunuch, Wu Sangui thought of another person, oh no, two people.
"You said earlier that there are only two troops in the capital, Tang Tong and Ma Ke?"
"It is said that the two of them stayed in the capital under the military orders of the young eunuch, but they were not in the capital but in Shunyi County in the north of Beijing..." Shen Jianghu said quickly, as if he knew what Wu Sangui was going to do.
Sure enough, Wu Sangui nodded slightly and said, "I'll send someone to deliver the book after I've compiled it."
"You only need to repair one letter?" Shen Jianghu seemed to be smiling, but Wu Sangui said, "Yes, you can't go empty-handed when asking for help."
