It was April in a blink of an eye, scattered from Shanhaiguan to both sides, Beijing and Shenyang, the three places were extremely nervous, the army was dreadful, and the anger was dry.
Shenyang.
Huang Taiji received Fan Wenchen's head and stared at the lime box with a green face, his eyes opened with anger, fierce and fierce.
The faces of Ning Wan, Empress Zhezhe and others in front of him changed drastically.
Even if he had anticipated something, he was shocked and pale.
"Zhou Zhengyun children!"
Huang Taiji roared and finished shouting, then he suddenly snorted, spurting out a mouthful of blood, and fell straight down.
Ning finished me, Zhezhe and others were shocked, and hurriedly stepped forward to support them, and at the same time shouted for the imperial physician.
Half an hour later, the imperial physician left in front of Huangtaiji's couch and said to Zhezhe and the others: "Manny, your majesty is anxious and heartbroken. The slave has already prescribed the medicine. Your majesty will be fine after a few days' rest."
Zhezhe and the others were relieved, and hurriedly asked the imperial physician to decoct the medicine.
Huang Taiji lay in her arms, his face was pale, his breath was weak, and he said, "Big Brother."
Dai Shan had already rushed over, and he hurried forward as he listened.
Huang Taiji's mouth was still bloodshot, and he looked at Dai Shan and said, "Jilhalang, where is Dorgon?"
This time, Jirhalang and Dorgon led the troops to Xifengkou.
Dai Shan was startled. He wanted to reassure a few words, but still said: "According to estimates, there are still two people who can reach Xifengkou."
Huang Taiji's gaze swept across Ning Wan, me, Duo Duo and others, and said with undiminished anger: "Zhou Zhengyun killed my important minister, I can't bear it! Immediately mobilize all the soldiers and horses, and send troops to Linghe immediately."
Dai Shan looked shocked and said, "Your Majesty, your body has not healed, and the winter snow has not disappeared. It is not suitable to send troops."
The corner of Huang Taiji's face stirred, and he said coldly: "This is my order!"
Dai Shan looked at Huang Taiji's firm expression, then looked at Ning Wan and others.
These people are silent. Huang Taiji has always been decisive and resolute. Once he decides, others can't object.
Dai Shan was silent for a while and said, "Okay, what about Dongjiang Town?"
Huang Taiji's eyes were cold, and he said: "They are all infantrymen, so they dare not take risks. Zhou Zhengyun does not dare to let them go north at this time. I want to break Jinzhou and enter Shanhaiguan. I want Zhou Zheng's big dream to be completely shattered!"
Dai Shan knew that Huang Taiji hated Zhou Zheng so much that he raised his hand and said, "Zhuzhi."
Daishan and others led the order to leave, quickly mobilized troops and horses, and also requested reinforcements from Mongolian allies.
Shenyang was turbulent, and the army was mobilized frequently. It was quickly found out by the Military Intelligence Department.
On the fifth day of April, Shanhaiguan.
In the Zhengxi camp, only Zhou Zheng, Sun Chuanting, Meng Hezhou and others, Cao Wenzhao, Man Gui and others have gone to Yongping Mansion, each leading their troops, ready to send troops at any time.
Sun Chuanting planted a flag on the sand table and said: "We thought that Li Zicheng would be divided into three groups, but now it seems that we have neglected the surrender. Wu Sangui, Tang Tong and others led their troops to bypass Beishan and cross the Great Wall in an attempt to bypass Shanhaiguan. To the north, behind us."
Meng Hezhou summed up the information and said: "Gao Jie said that the people of Jianlu had a private conversation with Li Zicheng, and he tested it twice. Li Zicheng did not leak his words. Whether he merged with Jianluo is temporarily unable to determine."
Sun Chuanting planted a banner on the north side of the Great Wall and said, "A piece of rock, here is the most suitable battlefield to stop them. Wu Sangui and others led an army of 20,000, plus the captives. We may need 50,000 to stop them."
Meng Hezhou glanced at Zhou Zheng and said, "Jianlu has sent troops to Linghe and Linghe, and they should be there in three days. Chief Jin has issued a military order to defend Jinzhou firmly, and promise not to lose."
Yao Tongshun came in from the outside, and said condensedly: "My lord, there are some people in Hejian Prefecture and Yongping Prefecture who have unpredictable thoughts. They have correspondence with the thief and want to betray the adults."
Zhou Zheng looked at the sand table with his hands behind his back, silently.
The current Zhou Zheng is really embarrassed on all sides, and there are crises everywhere.
Seeing Zhou Zheng not speaking, Sun Chuanting stood up and looked at him, and said thoughtfully: "Huang Taiji has only 30,000 people at most. Even if he fights hard, he can't fight Jinzhou. Huang Taiji should know it well. By doing this, he just wants to impose on us. Pressure. Just let Dongjiang Town move for a while, no need to worry. The 20,000 people in Ji'erhalang and Dolgun are indeed a trouble. Their cavalry come and go freely. If they attack any of us, they will indeed influence the situation outside the customs. But. They shouldn't go deep into the pass. If they accidentally break the halberd and build 30,000 left, then they will be the country's subjugation."
Zhou Zheng answered the conversation and said lightly: "Five days, at most five days! As long as I can block Wu Sangui and Jianlu for five days, I can defeat Li Zicheng and regain the capital. Can you do anything?"
Sun Chuanting looked at Zhou Zheng, thought about it seriously, and said: "Block the gap in the Great Wall, and fight Wu Sangui, Tang Tong and others in the pass, while the Great Wall defends and builds the captives. Li Zicheng decided to send troops seventeen and there are more than ten days left. , Should be enough."
This is also a risky move. If this gap fails, the overall situation may be threatened!
Zhou Zheng squinted his eyes and said in a deep voice: "Zhao led teaches, and Cao Wenzhao went, each with 20,000 elite soldiers. Yang Guozhu, Man Gui led 40,000 soldiers to the left, the official led 40,000 and Cao Bianjiao’s 20,000 cavalry were Midway. Don’t wait anymore, send troops in two days!"
Listening to the surprise, Sun Chuanting quickly raised his hand and said: "Yes!"
Zhou Zheng looked at the north with his hands behind his back, his expression like iron, his eyes like attention.
Yao Tongshun looked at Zhou Zheng's expression and took a hard breath.
The big thing is coming!
Following Zhou Zheng's order, the more than one hundred thousand troops in Yongping Mansion moved quickly.
Cao Wenzhao, Zhao Ledjiao led his troops straight to a piece of rock, to separate the prisoners from the robbers and block them here.
Cao Bianjiao, Man Gui, Yang Guozhu and others rectified the army, divided into the left and middle wings, and prepared to advance towards the capital.
Zhou Zheng took the lead and sent troops'suddenly', which naturally shocked many people. Many people felt that Zhou Zheng was hasty and hoped that he would wait again, or wait for Li Zicheng to come and wait for work instead of going to the capital.
Regardless of what these people thought, Zhou Zheng had already rode a horse, with an army of 80,000, heading to the capital.
Tianjin Wei is close to Yongping Mansion, and Zhou Zheng's every move is clearly known here.
Zhou Mansion.
Zhou Qingli stood under the eaves, listening to Fu Bo's report, silently looking at the direction of the capital. He curled his brows, his face dark and he couldn't make out any expressions.
Shangguanqing took the two children and stood behind him with a worried expression.
The army led by Zhou Zheng is 80,000, and Li Zicheng may have more than 100,000. Zhou Zheng hastily dispatched troops and is at a disadvantage in terms of momentum. The victory or defeat of this battle is unpredictable!
If defeated, the Zhou family’s historical positioning is the last Ming army, Tianjin Guards will be beaten down, and none of their Zhou family is spared!
When Zhou Zheng moved here, Li Zicheng quickly received the news and was furious.
"Zhou Zheng child, I didn't go to kill him, he actually dared to come and die!" Li Zicheng slapped the dragon chair and shouted coldly.
General Quan Liu Zongmin stepped forward and said loudly: "A mere Zhou Zheng, brother, give me 40,000, and I will bring his head back to you!"
"I only need thirty thousand!"
"I only need 30,000!"
A group of military commanders who have made great achievements in battle suddenly clamored for the credit.
Li Zicheng looked angry and watched everyone wave their hands and said: "Needless to say, I want to fight by myself to destroy Zhou Zhengyun, and then return to Beijing to take the throne!" (End of this chapter)
