At noon, the warm sun is shining, the breeze is gentle, and on the vast wilderness around Chenjialin Mountain, the spring buds spit green, almost one day a day, which makes people sigh at the mystery of the Creator.

Maybe it was Xu Changqing's incomprehensible actions last night, the Qing army was very restrained this morning, and there was no action, but there were more and more Han slaves gathered on the east and south sides of the model army position, and the Qing army seemed to be a little overwhelmed.

"My lord, reinforcements will be ...... in a short time I'm afraid it won't come. The Tartar blockade is so strict, we don't know the situation outside, we have to prepare early! ”

On the high command platform, looking at the Ming army scattered by the Qing army like a sheep in the distance, Li Yan said in a solemn voice.

Before, Li Yan always called Xu Changqing 'uncle' or 'handsome', but since yesterday, he has begun to call Xu Changqing 'lord', as if he is using his actual actions to show his will to Xu Changqing.

Xu Changqing nodded slowly, "It's not that they won't come in a short time, but ~~, even if we are destroyed, they may not come!" ”

"This ......"

Li Yan was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Xu Changqing to be so straightforward, but soon he also came back to his senses, and said a little hideously: "Lord, since this is the case, let's break through earlier!" The subordinates have a plan, at least eighty percent sure! ”

As he spoke, Li Yan looked at Xu Changqing with blazing eyes.

Xu Changqing shook his head with a smile: "Military advisor, do you know why I didn't want Wang Tingchen's horse that day?" ”

Without waiting for Li Yan to reply, Xu Changqing continued: "The brothers of the Model Army, I Xu Changqing personally brought them out, then I, Xu Changqing, have the responsibility to bring them back!" If I, Xu Changqing, use the flesh and bones of my brothers as cannon fodder, even if I can survive in secret, what face will I Xu Changqing have in the future, and what confidence will I have in the face of Haicheng's fathers and elders to fight with the Tartars again? ”

"Lord ......"

Li Yan's face suddenly turned pale, Xu Changqing's words were a little harsh, and Li Yan's legs and stomach began to weaken a little.

Xu Changqing patted Li Yan's shoulder with a smile at this time: "Military advisor, you are a talented person, don't look so shallowly, before you reach the poor dagger, who will kill the deer, it is still unknown yet!" We haven't lost yet! Grasp the present, this is also a huge test for you! ”

……

Seeing Li Yan's back staggering away slightly, Xu Changqing rubbed his nose vigorously.

Li Yan is actually very good in terms of government affairs, including vision, but he still does not transcend the limitations of the times, and he still does the landlord class in his bones, and does not realize the preciousness of the people!

It cannot be said that he is wrong.

Maybe for many people, his set is the real avenue, abandoning the pawn to protect the handsome, but for Xu Changqing, this is a bit of a picture!

Even if he wants to break through, Xu Changqing has to really fight with the Tartars, and after playing all the cards, he will find a way back!

However, even Li Yan has this mentality at this time, and you can imagine the soldiers below.

"Brother, the sun will be smaller in another hour, should we dig again?"

Not long after Li Yan left, Wu Sanmei walked quickly to Xu Changqing's side, her little face flushed, obviously she had done some hard work just now.

Xu Changqing smiled: "Don't worry, let's work again when the sun goes down completely, you go to rest first and recuperate your strength." ”

"Okay, brother, call me at any time."

Wu Sanmei soon went to work again, and Xu Changqing's mood was also slightly relaxed.

In this state, the more helpless the waiting, the more frightening it will be, and doing anything casually, even if it is a little useless, can ease people's mentality.

And with the advantages that the model army had established before, this could bring some pressure to the Qing army to some extent.

In last night's operation, Xu Changqing mainly wanted to test the reaction of the Qing army, to see if he could touch the front of the Qing army and frame some blasting points, but the keen reaction of the Qing army made Xu Changqing have to change the plan and change it to 'digging tunnels', and it is a tunnel on the surface, just to find something for the soldiers to do!

Even if it's not useful, it can make the soldiers feel very useful!

But Xu Changqing understands very well that if he can't find a breakthrough in a short period of time, with the gradual consumption of grain and grass, the deadlock situation of the model army will become more and more serious, until there is no chance to turn the tables!

Tonight, I've got to come up with some real chapters!

Either they have to frustrate the spirit of the Qing army, or even win a victory, so that Hong Chengchou and others feel profitable, and they must come over to get a piece of the pie.

Either they have to get some food and grass, so that the model army has a chance to continue to hold on, and then find other ways!

……

At the end of February, it gets dark very quickly, and the temperature difference between morning and evening is also very large, and at noon the sun is so poisonous that people want to be naked, but at night they still feel cold in a cotton jacket.

The sky is getting dark, and the model army is making a move.

In the northern part of the position, the Model Army dispatched more than 4,000 men tonight, with the defensive formation of the battle soldiers in front and more than 1,000 sturdy auxiliaries continuing to dig the 'water ditch' in the back.

Because of the cessation of the Qing army today, all the officers and men of the model army have raised enough strength, and everyone knows that it is a dead end, and they work extremely hard and fast.

"Brother, what are they going to do? Want to come hard tonight? ”

Duoduo didn't dare to drink anymore tonight, his eyes were bigger than a bull's eye, and he didn't dare to let go of every detail of the model army.

Dolgon played with the mustache under his chin, frowning tightly, and he couldn't tell what Xu Changqing was going to do for a while.

But one thing he can be sure of!

Xu Changqing was already a little 'dog jumping off the wall' at this time, and if he was not careful, the big scene would be on the verge of breaking out!

"No hurry! We have so many main forces, are you afraid of what kind of moth he is playing? Inform the warriors that they must cheer up tonight, and Xu Changqing must not be given a chance! ”

"Brother, don't worry, I'll be here tonight! By the way, brother, what happened to Hong Chengchou and Guan Ning's main force? ”

Duoduo looked at Dorgon.

Dolgon smiled: "They have seen a lot of spies, but the main force has been cowering in Pinggu City. However, this royal courtier was a little interesting, and set up camp thirty miles away from us. ”

"Then, should we slaughter the waste of the royal courtiers first? Slaughter this waste who doesn't know whether it's alive or dead, and see who dares to take the lead! ”

Looking at the fierce Duoduo, Dorgon smiled and shook his head: "Fifteen, be patient! It's not time to close the net! You come tonight, let Zierharang come tomorrow night, let Du Du come the day after tomorrow, and I will come in person the day after tomorrow, let's grind Xu Changqing to death this time! ”

……

The night is getting darker, and in the blink of an eye, it is already ugly.

At this time, the model army had already dug eight canals, which stretched for more than two miles, but the Qing army had always maintained considerable restraint and firmly stared at the movements of the model army, but did not rush it.

Even Wu Sanmei took the lead in digging the canal herself, but she was tired and sweaty, but she never complained.

Xu Changqing's cold sweat began to swell at this time.

According to this situation, he and these nearly 10,000 sons and daughters have almost no chance to come......

But on the bright side, Xu Changqing must still maintain the appearance of being under control......

"What the hell is going to do?"

Xu Changqing also fell into a dilemma at this time.

Enter, not enter.

Retreat, let alone retreat.

For tonight's action, Xu Changqing did not save on food, so that all the soldiers were well fed, but at this time, this kind of food and well-fed food was good, and the grain and grass of the model army could not last a few meals.

If you can't find a breakthrough, tonight's food will be wasted!

Just when Xu Changqing gritted his teeth, ready to make some noise with the Tartars, at this time, a pro-soldier from the south suddenly ran over quickly, and said with some excitement: "We dug a big tomb in the outermost tunnel, which looks like it is from the Yuan Dynasty." A knowledgeable brother said that there is likely to be a road leading to the white-flaged camp over there! ”

"Huh?"

Xu Changqing's spirits suddenly perked up, and he hurriedly said, "Let's go, go and have a look." ”

Soon, Xu Changqing came to this tunnel here, a bearded man in his early forties, wearing auxiliary uniforms, was being transferred from a hole the size of a sewer manhole cover in a small basket.

As soon as he saw Xu Changqing, this man was a little excited, and he was busy kneeling and kowtowing: "I've seen my uncle." ”

The soldier hurriedly introduced: "Uncle, his name is Xia Qiudong, nicknamed Xia Laoer, don't look at him, this is a crepe, but he is a famous tomb robber in Guangning!" Before, the sons and daughters only dug up some red soil, and he judged that there was a large tomb underneath. ”

Xu Changqing was overjoyed in his heart, but he pretended to be calm and said, "Brother Xia, you have made meritorious service this time, what is the next situation?" Is there a road to the Qing army camp? ”

When Xia Qiudong heard the word 'meritorious service', he was a little excited and couldn't find the north, and he came back to his senses after a while, and stammered busily: "Return, back to the words of the handsome, the humble post just went down to take a look, this, this should be a Yuan Dynasty prince's family tomb, there are at least seven or eight tombs underneath, most of them should have been stolen, even if there is no Yongdao, the humble position can also be used to steal the hole, where the big handsome you point, the humble position can hit where!" ”

Xu Changqing's fists couldn't help clenching tightly!

There is no endless road!

Even if this kind of tomb can't allow the model army to escape, it is a lot easier to use it to make trouble!

And as long as they can make things happen and let Hong Chengchou and them see the ability of the model army, things will have room for maneuver!

"Brother Xia, you don't have to be inferior! What does the old saying say? Three hundred and sixty lines, the line is the champion! Tonight, you're not making a meritorious service, you're a fucking meritorious service! How long will it take you to go underground to figure it out to Lao Tzu? If you can figure it out before noon tomorrow, Lao Tzu will reward you with a thousand households, do you dare?! ”

Xu Changqing looked at Xiaqiu and Winter like a tiger.

As soon as he heard 'Qianhu', Xia, Qiudong was about to explode with excitement, his old face turned red, and he hurriedly said: "Don't worry, Dashuai, it won't take until noon tomorrow, and before midnight tomorrow morning, I will definitely give you a satisfactory explanation!" ”

"Good!"

Xu Changqing patted him on the shoulder: "Lao Tzu gives you the best manpower, the best sapper surveying and mapping, give Lao Tzu your greatest ability!" ”
