Xiaozhuang looked at the old minister kneeling in front of him, and felt angry and helpless.

Assassinating the Ming Emperor, is this what Sony came up with?

I have to say that if success can indeed greatly alleviate the pressure of the Qing army, but the problem is that it is not successful.

And the possibility of success in such a thing is too low.

The guards around the Emperor of Ming Dynasty were not a bucket, so how could he sit and watch his monarch die suddenly and die at the hands of an assassin?

I can only say that Sony is in a hurry to seek medical treatment, and it is already in a mess.

Xiaozhuang wanted to scold Sony hard, but then he thought that the Qing Dynasty was now at the time of employing people.

If he scolds Sony like this, it will not only make all the old officials like Sony and Sony feel heartbroken, but it will not help in any way.

At present, the form of the Qing Dynasty cannot be reversed by one or two people. If you want to survive in death, you must gather all the power that can be gathered.

"Get up, the Ai family didn't blame you."

Xiaozhuang sighed and helped Sony up with his own hands.

"The Ming army is now in a state of unstoppable power, and it is very stance to not return until it breaks through Shengjing. What should we do if we see?"

Sony stood up tremblingly and hesitated for a moment before saying, "By the master, according to the slave's opinion, we should no longer fight with the Ming army on the periphery, but win to gather all our troops to fight a decisive battle in Shenyang. At present, the strength of the Ming army is on the surface. If we fight head-on, there will be a glimmer of hope. If they gradually erode each other, they will be able to break the flesh with a blunt knife, and there is no chance of survival."

Sony was heartbroken, and Xiaozhuang felt a sudden slap in his heart when he heard this.

I have to say that what Sony said makes sense.

In the past, the Qing Dynasty wanted to defend every important town, but the result was that it could not be defended.

As the Ming army rolled up snowballs, it became increasingly difficult for the Qing army to win. The most terrifying thing was that it was completely at a disadvantage in momentum.

"But if all the troops are gathered in Shengjing, the other cities will be no longer guarding?"

"Master, it is the most important thing to protect the lives of the royal family and the nobles of the Eight Banners. As for the lives of those untouchables, it is not a pity."

Sony said it firmly without any hesitation.

Xiaozhuang had difficulty making a decision for a while, so he walked up in the hall.

Compared to the usual times, the decision at this moment is more critical. Often, one decision can determine the luck of the Qing Dynasty.

Therefore, Xiaozhuang must be very cautious and must never make decisions easily.

After a long time, Xiaozhuang stopped and said in a deep voice: "As a result, the Ai family should concentrate their troops to prepare for war. Well, you can start doing this. As long as you can defend Shengjing, the Qing Dynasty will have a chance to turn the tables."

Xiaozhuang is a very realistic person. To put it bluntly, he can pick it up and put it down.

Sony was so excited that she burst into tears when she heard this.

"It is a blessing for the Qing Dynasty to think so. I, the Qing Dynasty, only need to sleep on firewood and taste gall for three years, and I will definitely be able to return to the pass."

In fact, Sony knew very well that it would be good to be able to protect himself with the current strength of the Qing Dynasty. He was just talking about how to comfort Xiaozhuang.

Why don’t Xiaozhuang know about it?

She smiled bitterly and said, "I hope so."

Xiaozhuang seemed to suddenly remember something and paused, "Your title will be inherited by the second son. The Suo family has been loyal and kind for generations, and the imperial court will not deprive it of this title."

"Thank you, my master."

"Get out."

...

...

The Ming army led by Yu Qi was very powerful in action. After deciding to attack Hetuala and Sarhu, they immediately leaned in this direction.

Their total strength is about 10,000, so it will be very conspicuous if they march together. But if they march separately, Yu Qi is worried that they will not have any contact with each other.

Finally, after some discussion, Yu Qi decided to divide the troops into two groups, one by him and Wang Ermazi, and the other by He Shouyi and Qian Youren.

Of course, Yu Qi's army had a lot of Qian Youren's subordinates serving as guides.

In this way, neither party should get lost, and then meet up at the agreed location.

The deeper you go to Liaodong, the more forests you get, the bigger and bigger.

This is an inevitable thing.

In this way, the Ming army may not only encounter the Qing army, but also encounter wild beasts.

Yu Qi and others have the experience of fighting wild beasts. As long as they fight wild beasts in groups and do not get separated, they can scare these beasts away by using torches.

Unless you encounter a pack of wolves that have been hungry for a long time, it will not pose too much threat to the Ming army.

Yu Qi distributed fire notes to every soldier, so that when encountering a crisis, he could immediately make fire and scare away the beasts.

In addition to these problems, the most difficult thing is the food problem.

Whether it is Hetuala or Sarhu, it is a place of bitter and cold.

Shenyang is already a cold place for the people of the Ming Dynasty.

But in the minds of the Qing army, Shenyang was like a place on the south side of the Yangtze River.

Because Hetuala and Sarhu are much colder than Shenyang.

Qian Youren has to adapt much to this aspect. After all, they are descendants of Dongjiang Town and have lived in this area for decades.

Yu Qi, Wang Ermazi, and He Shouyi are going to be a little worse.

They can only try to make themselves wear thicker to suit this generation of environment.

...

...

Among them, Qian Youren, and He Shouyi's branch has a large number of people and has also traveled more slowly.

"General Qian, is there a place to rest in front of you? The brothers have also walked dozens of miles, and their legs are almost broken."

He Shouyi gasped and suggested. If he walked along like this, the soldiers would inevitably complain.

Although the soldiers are tied up their legs, they still feel sore and swollen in their calves.

In addition, the weather is severe and cold, if the blood stasis accumulates and cannot be relieved, it is a very terrible thing.

This is not a joke.

Qian Youren nodded and said, "Don't worry, General He, if I remember correctly, there is a clearing in the forest not far ahead, and the hunters often rest there. Although we have a large number of people, we can still sit down if we squeeze in. It's almost time to have a meal, so we will rest there. It's not too late to rush there after burying the pot and making rice."

He Shouyi was overjoyed when he heard this.

"That's good, but we have to pay attention to one thing. Never solve the problem in a cold environment."

He Shouyi said a little embarrassedly: "I tried it once before, but I almost called it frozen."

Qian Youren laughed and said, "I didn't tell General He in advance. This is already common sense in Liaodong. Liaodong is a bitter and cold place, and it is easy to be frozen when it is convenient for the wild."

"I see."

He Shouyi nodded and said, "We will pay attention in the future."

"Well, let's speed up a few steps and camp first in the open space in the forest."

"Okay, that's it."
