Chapter 314 Yang Conspiracy

ps: Happy National Day!

...

"Mr. Beizi, the bandits are invincible, and this pass cannot be defended. With the view of a servant, it is better to leave early!"

Gao Di, who was still the general of Shanhaiguan, spoke anxiously.

It only took half a day for the Zheng army to land. Now they have overcome the three cities of Ninghai, Nanyi and Weiyuan, swept two sentry cities, and the soldiers rushed straight to Guancheng. They also directly "save" Xiluo City due to angle reasons. Gao Di still had the idea of ​​resisting, so he would not have surrendered to the Qing Dynasty so simply.

Mandahai's face turned pale. He would definitely not want to leave. Without Yanjing's will, how could he leave Shanhaiguan? But he really couldn't say anything about refuting. Gao Di's words were not wrong at all.

"Shanhaiguan has a great relationship. Without the idea of ​​the court, how can Benbeizi retreat?"

"But Mr. Bei Zi, the Zheng army is strong and strong. Now we are waiting for death if we don't retreat. Shanhaiguan has five thousand soldiers and horses, and the Eight Banners are not less than three thousand brave. Now there are two thousand dynasties. Isn't it waste of the country's foundation if we die in vain?"

Gao Di knew very well that the Eight Banners were expensive. The number of real Tartars was too small. Before, the Han army flag was cannon fodder, but now there are green flag soldiers, there is no need to say much about the Mongolian army flag, and even the Han army flag is expensive. Not to mention the two or three thousand and eight banners, even if the two or three hundred and eight banners are unnecessary, they will suffer heavy punishment.

In his eyes, the current battle at Shanhaiguan is a "meaningless" battle.

Even though you know you can't beat it, you still have to fight. This is not bravery, but stupidity. The Qing Dynasty behind Mandahai is still majestic and mighty, and it is not that you have reached the edge of the cliff where you can't beat.

Mandahai still didn't spit.

He is Daishan's seventh son. With Yuetuo, Shuotuo and Sahalian, he died one after another. Among the second generations in the Daishan branch of Prince Li, he is the best in Mandahai.

And Dorgon handed over Shanhaiguan as a key place to him, and there was also an indescribable meaning inside. Therefore, he really could not abandon this place casually.

Mandahai was hesitating, but Zheng Hongkui also dispersed. After seizing Nanyi City, torches lit up outside the pass, and a large group of Zheng soldiers were busy transferring a cannon from Nanyi City to Wangyangmen in Guancheng.

Zheng Jun landed from the coast and came straight to Guancheng along the city. So he didn't have to fight Xiluo City at all, just confront Guancheng directly.

I was speechless all night. By dawn the next day, all three artillery positions had been built. Although there were no basic willow baskets and trenches in this place. I only arranged a circle of shield cars in front of the position, which was very simple.

All three artillery positions can send shells to every corner of the entire southern city wall. Because there is no cannon on it, the remaining few red cannons in Shanhaiguan are all at the east and west gates. Because of this arrangement, firing from the urn of Guancheng, the only few remaining cannons can also cross Xiluo City to pose a very direct threat to the enemy.

Xiluo City and Shanhaiguan City look like a super-large urn at first glance, with only one Gongchen Gate open. It looks the same as the urn, although it is super large.

More than a hundred cannons fired in three artillery positions, and soon the Qing army on the southern city wall was unable to raise its head. The towering city tower on the Wangyang Gate was even more collapsed early in the morning.

Kerkun is an old man under Mandahai. He is the manchurian red flag Jialazhangjing. His actual status is higher than that of Gaodi, the general of Shanhaiguan, and he can be called the actual deputy general of Shanhaiguan.

After receiving the news from Wangyangmen, Manda Haixian asked Kerkun to lead his troops but also helped him. Although most of the thousands of people he led were battalions under Gao Di.

"Boom boom boom..."

As soon as he arrived at the built-in urn city of Wangyangmen, Keerkun discovered that the situation was not good. With one after another, Zheng's artillery fire had already crossed Wangyangmen and fell towards the inner urn city. Before the Keerkun people could react, they were carried by Goshha beside them and hid in the gate of the urn city. Then he saw that the thousands of soldiers and horses he brought had not suffered much damage, but they had already been in chaos by Zheng's artillery bombardment and turned into a group of headless flies.

He saw with his own eyes that Niulu Zhangjing was overturned to the ground by the riots. The lowly Nikan stepped past him with big feet. The fault was that there was a loyal Goshha beside him to rescue him, and he might be trampled to death by his feet.

"Master, this Shanhaiguan can't be saved anymore." The voice beside Korkun said.

"Go to Jiao Mountain, go to Jiao Mountain." Kerkun is not a silly person, he will escape when he sees something bad. The kind of passion that he can try to turn the tide with his own strength has nothing to do with him.

It was less than 8 o'clock in the morning (8 o'clock in the morning), and Wangyangmen declared his loss.

Mandahai's face was pale and he could not imagine that this majestic Shanhaiguan was completely ruined by just one blow.

"Master, let's go." If you don't leave, you really can't leave.

"Mr. Beizi, victory or defeat is common for military strategists. If Zhuge Wuhou still has the defeat of Jieting, why should Mr. Beizi be confused about the gains and losses of this place? Even if Shanhaiguan falls into the opponent's hands, it will be just a small blow to our Qing Dynasty."

Gao Di's heart was already trembling. At this time, Mandahai would not leave, so Gao would not be able to accompany him.

Mandahai closed his eyes dejectedly. Goshha and the slave beside him were immediately overjoyed when they saw it, and stepped forward to set up Mandahai.

In other words, from the time Zheng Hongkui led his army to Shanhaiguan, holding five thousand soldiers in his hand, and sitting in the Mandahai Sea, which was a strong city in Shanhaiguan, the Qing soldiers fled to Jiaojiaoshanguan in a mess.

How many people were killed by Zheng Jun's guns or were dealt with by the pursued Zheng Jun, which was an uncountable number.

They fled to Mandahai, Jiaoshan Pass, and only two thousand defeated generals were left under their command. They had no rest, so they continued to flee west along the Great Wall. They didn't even dare to leave Jiaoshan Pass, and were not sure whether there were any pockets arranged by Zheng's army waiting for them before that Jiaoshan Pass, which seemed to be without soldiers.

The Qing army, whose mind was full of words escape and survival, had already forgotten the Wu army who came to help.

As soon as the Zheng army appeared, Mandahai sent three troops to inform Daishan of Shengjing, Wu Sanfu of Ningyuan City (Wu Sangui's younger brother), and the regent of Yanjing City.

Whether it is the Shanshan or Dorgon, they are all far away and cannot quench their near thirst. Only Wu Sanfu in Ningyuan City and Guanning Army in Jinxi Corridor are the closest reinforcements to Shanhaiguan.

Especially Tong Shisheng, who was stationed in Qiantun Aluminum in Guangning, was only forty miles away from Shanhaiguan. This man was originally one of the deputy generals under Wu Sangui. Now, the second-class Meilezhangjing, who heard that Shanhaiguan had changed, dared not be negligent? He immediately led 3,000 out of the five thousand soldiers under his command out of the city. Before dark, he entered the Guangning Zhongqian Station about twenty miles away from Shanhaiguan. When he got up the next day, he took away the local one thousand Guanning troops. The 4,000 troops arrived at Shanhaiguan in the afternoon.

Zheng Jun stationed in Weiyuan Fort saw Wu Jun coming to help from afar. When he reported to Zheng Hongkui, he made the latter laugh happily. This was the fat meat he brought to his door.

At this moment, the Zheng army flag in Weiyuan Fort was replaced by the Qing army's dragon flag, and guns and cannons were heard everywhere at Shanhai Pass. Until Tong Shisheng led his troops to the Weiyuan Fort, he was completely confused.

Seeing the Qing Dynasty flag carried on Weiyuan Fort being pulled off and replaced by the Zheng family flag, and the originally lively guns and cannons behind Huanxi Ridge suddenly subsided, Tong Shisheng really wished that a mouthful of blood would spur three feet away.

He was deceived completely and delivered it to Zheng Jun himself. It was impossible to escape at this time.

"Go and tell the man named Tong, surrender obediently. I can let him go, otherwise, I won't leave any one!" Zheng Hongkui stood behind him, how could he take the Wu army seriously?

This time he led his troops outside the pass, and captured Shanhaiguan was the first. He cleaned up the Wu army and repaired the two main forces of the red flags left behind outside the pass, which was the second.

Zheng Zhilong said in his letters to him that if possible, he would just fight Shengjing and even take down Alahtu.

Then I don’t believe that the Tartars would not send troops outside the pass.

Then he could use the convenience of the navy to send the troops outside the pass back to Tianjin in the shortest time. After joining the troops he led, he set up a formation in the capital to fight the Tartars for a good battle.

If the Yanjing can be captured in one fell swoop and the Tartars are forced to "mov the capital" in a mess, the Zheng family's reputation will surely shake the world.

The reputation that Zheng Zhilong lost before and the influence of his rift with Jinling is nothing wrong under the general trend.

If so, what else does Zheng Hongkui not understand? This is Zheng Zhilong's open conspiracy. The more he fights outside the pass, the better he fights, the more uncomfortable the Tartars will be.

But the number of Tartar soldiers was limited. Although they defeated Jinling and won the support of the gentry class in the North, it would take some time to transform this support into real strength.

Especially at the critical moment of fighting with Li Zicheng, although Li Shun suffered a lot of defeats, Li Zicheng's capital was not yet fully compensated, and he still held many elite soldiers in his hand. As long as the Tartars retreated in Guanzhong or turned attack into defense, Li Zicheng could take a breath. At that time, only relying on the Gushikhan of Qinghai and the solemn rebels would be no match for Li Shun.

Even when the Tartar army made a comeback, Li Zicheng was not an opponent. But with this breathing opportunity, Li Zicheng could have time to make another way to make a living, right?

The Guanzhong land is now a dead place. Even if Li Zicheng can defend Chang'an, he will rely on the broken Guanzhong and cannot support so many soldiers under his command.

In Zheng Zhilong's view, Li Zicheng's only way out is to go out of Wu Pass and break into Nanyang. When the main forces of the Qing Dynasty were attracted by him, Nanyang's troops were empty. Only those Zuo family troops who followed Zuo Menggeng to surrender to the Qing Dynasty were very unlikely to defend Nanyang.

After capturing Nanyang, you can join the Baiwang army in Xiangyang, then seize Jingzhou westward, occupy Jingxiang, find an opportunity to go south, or go east, and take advantage of the great loss of the Ming army to cross the Yangtze River, so that you can have a way out.

Then he had to join forces with Zhang Xianzhong from Sichuan and Sichuan. Otherwise, if Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong were still in a state of war, the end of Li would not be far away.

But in this way, the situation suddenly looked very similar to the scene of the Ming and Qing dynasties in history, but there was another Zheng family in the world. Zheng Zhilong could not predict how the situation would develop in the future.

He was playing big before he died.

As long as this combat plan continues step by step, the "situation" of the whole world will be in chaos. No matter how confrontation between the north and the south, or the struggle for power in the Ming and Qing dynasties, it is nothing.

I don’t know how this historical book of time and space will judge him in the future...

Zheng Zhilong compared the achievements he had made in recent years, the strength he had, and the strength he had, and found that Zhou Shizong Chai Rong was the most similar to him.

All are not accomplished, all are divine martial arts and heroes, and all are the collapse of the middle way.

Will that be the second in Zhou Shizong?
