Dorgon was in a bad mood. The Qing Dynasty entered the Central Plains and fulfilled the most beautiful and luxurious dream in the hearts of several generations of leaders. It can be said that this is a myth of snake swallowing elephant. The problem is that the Central Plains is too big, so big that it makes Dorgon afraid. For this reason, he has to win over the gentry and people of the Central Plains. ≥

I want to win over the bannermen, but now the bannermen are frequently attacked. I am afraid that the people who have won over the front will be dispersed all the time. If I don’t take heavy measures, I cannot stop such a bannermen being attacked. It is like a bad person who suddenly wants to be a good person. After finally getting better, I have suddenly given up the previous efforts and feel unwilling to give up.

Fascinated by a difficult situation of advancing and retreating, Dorgon decided to plan in advance and reverse the current decline in the Qing Dynasty.

As the number one think tank in the army, Fan Wencheng naturally understood what Dorgon said about planning ahead. Dorgon planned to concentrate his troops to capture Ningqiangzhou in the spring and remove this thorn in his eyes and a thorn in his flesh. Now he said about it in advance, wouldn’t he take action in winter?

Fan Wencheng said with some concern: "Sir, it's winter now, and the army is inconvenient to move. Ningqiangzhou has added reinforcements. They have muskets and cannons. I'm afraid we will suffer heavy losses."

"There is no one who can't die in war. Even when spring begins, the siege will suffer losses. If you are afraid, I will not be here." Dorgon said with a serious look: "The environment is the same for both sides. Our army is inconvenient, and the Sichuan army is even more inconvenient. The road to Shu is difficult, and it is difficult to reach the sky. Sichuan only has one stronghold in Shaanxi. We just need to surround it and take it down in one go, so as not to be too arrogant."

After saying that, Dorgon said with some remorse, "I am wrong. I have been thinking about delaying time and equipping as many firearms as possible, and giving craftsmen more time to study new firearms, so as to bring closer to the Sichuan Army in firearms. In fact, this is wrong. Our army is progressing. The Sichuan Army is also strong. Our Qing Dynasty is the best at iron cavalry. It is a bit of a waste of the foundation and the end of doing this. Isn't Ningqiang Prefecture 10,000 Sichuan troops? In addition, the five thousand reinforcements in Qingmukou are only 15,000. Well, I will take advantage of these five thousand people. I don't have many Eight Banners soldiers, and Sichuan has only 100,000 troops, plus the 30,000 soldiers, and only 130,000 soldiers. This time I'm not afraid of him."

Ajige nodded and said, "That's right, more than 10,000 muskets, with sufficient ammunition. If we take these weapons, we will definitely strengthen our Qing Dynasty."

"That's right, the general who guards Ning Qiangzhou now is Sun Xiong. This person is a good player in war, but his brain is a bit terrible. Being good at fighting immediately does not mean being good at politics immediately. This person is the main general, and he is definitely not in terms of management and prevention. Well, we expected that there would be some competition in Ning Qiangzhou. A lot of chess pieces were left early, which was just right for use." Fan Wencheng sneered from the side.

Ningqiangzhou is the closest city to the north gateway in Sichuan. Needless to say, it will encounter battles. Fan Wencheng had already considered this. At the beginning of taking over, he secretly arranged a lot of secret chess. These chess pieces were not clear about the guards of the city. It belonged to the highest secret of the Qing Dynasty. Fan Wencheng knew Dorgon's character and humbly accepted other people's opinions. Once he decided, it would be useless to say more.

Instead of dissuading, it is better to give more advice to increase your chances of winning this action.

In fact, due to the influence of the Killing Qing Order, morale continued to be sluggish, which also affected the confidence of those who defected to others. It is necessary to do something to reverse the situation of being beaten and boost the sluggish morale.

Ajige said hesitantly: "Ningqiang Prefecture is now in the hands of the Sichuan Army and blocked the road to the city. Even if we want to start, the news cannot be spread."

There was a secret chess but could not convey the news. This was a very serious problem, but Dorgon and Fan Wencheng were not worried at all. They looked at each other and found that there was a faint harsh light in their eyes. They immediately understood that the other party was thinking the same as themselves. Dorgon smiled indifferently about Ajige's problem, and the task of solving the problem fell on Fan Wencheng.

"Prince, those who accomplish great things do not care about the trivialities. Sometimes they should be cruel to others and sometimes they should be cruel to their own people. In order to achieve their goals, necessary sacrifices are indispensable. You forgot that there are not a group of people who disobey orders in the prison who defied the red flag? It is time to make them contribute to the Qing Dynasty..."

Humans are fickle animals. Different environments, different positions, and different responsibilities will also have different states of mind. This sentence is most suitable for Sun Xiong.

In the words of the old blacksmith Sun, his son's fate is not good but his luck is good. The reason for his bad luck is that he was born in a poor blacksmith's family. His luck is that he met a noble man like Governor Lu. From then on, he rose to the sky. No one would have thought that the little blacksmith who was hammered on that day would become a general who led thousands of troops and stood alone.

Outsiders can't believe this huge change. Even Sun Xiong himself was a little fluttering. He grew from a little blacksmith to a general, commanding thousands of troops, and was also a great hero in the mouths of the people. Every day, he heard all kinds of words of spring, and many beauties also frequently discharged electricity. Sun Xiong worked diligently on the surface and was unmoved, but in fact he felt very happy inside.

After all, Sun Xiong is a young man who is only twenty-five years old.

As the city lord, Sun Xiong likes to patrol the city wall most, first to let more people see him, secondly, when he walks past the city wall full of heads of the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty, when he thinks that these fierce Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty were also stepped under his legs, he feels a strange feeling of satisfaction, similar to conquest.

"General"

"General"

Along the way, well-trained soldiers saluted themselves respectfully, and a sense of pride arose in their hearts. In fact, it was the first time that Sun Xiong had held such an important position.

Sun Xiong stood on the city wall and looked down. The following were densely packed with heads of the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty, including men and women, old and young. These were all the results of the Qing Dynasty killing orders. Of course, this was also part of Sun Xiong's meritorious service.

Just when Sun Xiong was about to go back to his barracks to get warm, a sudden sound of horse hooves suddenly turned from afar, and there was a vague sound of people shouting for help. He turned his head and saw a horse team rushing over from afar.

"Report, there is a situation." At this time, the guards in charge shouted: "There is a suspected caravan being chased by the Qing Tartars."

It's not so cold that it's good to be in winter, and it's still chasing? Sun Xiong was curious and asked the guards to take out their telescope and raise them in front of him. Yes, some people were riding horses, and some were riding a car to rush towards Ningqiangzhou City where they were. Behind him, a team of Qing soldiers, who were wearing wolves and tigers, were looking clearly in the distance. Some of the Qing troops behind were screaming and waving scimitars, while others kept bent their bows and shooting arrows, intending to kill all the people who were running away in front. Sun Xiong saw with his own eyes that two men were chopped down by scimitars, and many men were caught in arrows and fell off the horse.

"Hurry up, the musketman prepares, the target is the Qing Tartars behind." Sun Xiong resolutely ordered.

Just after a glance, Sun Xiong decided to help the people who were running in front. The reason was very simple, because most of the saddles that were riding horses in front were covered with bloody heads, which could be seen clearly in the telescope. It was the head of the Manchu people with pig tails.

Sun Xiongxin concluded that these people attacked the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty. Judging from the people hanging on the heads, the scale was quite large. For some reason, the people of the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty knew about it and came to chase them, so they chased them all the way to Ningqiangzhou.

In fact, Ningqiang Prefecture is also a place to exchange bounties and seek shelter.

"Bang bang"

"Bang bang bang..."

When the Qing army behind us entered the range, the soldiers on the city wall fired without hesitation. The Qing army threw down a few corpses and ran away with unwillingness.

With only one hundred people in this team, it is naturally impossible to attack Ningqiangzhou City, which has been stationed in more than 10,000 well-equipped and swung. Even if you are unwilling to give up, you have to retreat.

Now that it is snowy and sympathetic to his subordinates, Sun Xiong is too lazy to send people to pursue him. This is also Lu Haoshan's request. There is no extremely important reason. He cannot leave the city casually, so as not to fall into the enemy's trap.

After repelling the enemy, Sun Xiong immediately met the caravan of escape from death. After inquiring, he learned that the people of Jinniu County, Hanzhong could not stand the exploitation of the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty, secretly united. More than 300 people dispatched to attack the Qing Dynasty's family in the city. After succeeding, they fled to Ningqiangzhou. Unexpectedly, the news leaked halfway, and the defending troops chased after him. More than 300 people were killed all the way. After arriving here, only more than 50 people remained.

In fact, if the Sichuan Army on the city wall had not provided assistance, I would have been afraid that all of these fifty people would have been killed.

In front of the well-trained regular army, these people were lambs to be slaughtered. No wonder the Qing army was so crazy. They ran away when they saw the Sichuan army from afar. This time they chased them under the city wall and had to leave a few bodies before they escaped. It turned out that their nest was raided by these people.

Deserve it!

Sun Xiong was a little moved when he heard this. Unexpectedly, these people were so bold and comforted the group with kind words, and ordered the military doctor to bandage the wounds of the team's slander. After confiscating their weapons, they gave bonuses according to the heads they brought, and ordered them to arrange food and accommodation.

"General, when can we go to Sichuan? Didn't we say we would arrange for us to enter Sichuan?" The burly man in the lead asked anxiously.

The stability and prosperity of Sichuan in troubled times are a paradise in the hearts of many people. Almost everyone who comes with their heads will ask this question.

Sun Xiong smiled and said, "It's winter now, the road is blocked with heavy snow, the road is wet and slippery, and it is easy to cause avalanches. It is not safe to enter Sichuan. You can stay here with peace of mind first. When spring begins, I will send you into Sichuan immediately. Don't worry, we have your food and accommodation."

"Oh, General Thank you." Although the man in the leader was a little disappointed, he still expressed his gratitude to Sun Xiong politely.

After the group of people left, Sun Xiong said proudly to his subordinates: "Look, it's better for us in Sichuan. Look, we are all in a hurry to enter Sichuan."

"That's it, that's it." The subordinate quickly agreed.

Neither of them noticed that when the burly man stepped out of the camp, a fierce light flashed across his eyes, and a cruel smile hung on his lips. (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, the novel is better and faster!
