But the most troublesome thing about the "watchtower" is its angular and prominent shape - each protruding wall has a bowl cannon. Regardless of the angle from which he sent his troops, they would be bombarded by at least two guns. And, of course, there's a lot of cross-fire shots.

It turns out that this so-called "watchtower" is Wang Yingxiong according to the drawings of the fortress sent by the auxiliary king, although it is only made of rammed earth, and the size is not large, but it benefits from the shape of the fortress science, and it is by no means able to be captured for a while.

After spending three days in the air over these inconspicuous "watchtowers", Gebuku finally figured it out and ordered to bypass these troublesome things - the Sand River was not deep anyway, and he could cross it by making some rafts.

However, what he didn't expect was that the Ming army in those small "watchtowers" was so bold that they slipped out of the fortifications that night when he crossed the river and had not yet gained a firm foothold, and approached his camp along the river bank, making noise everywhere.

The sergeants and soldiers of the battalion all thought that Wang Yingxiong's main force was attacking the camp, and hurriedly counterattacked, until dawn did they realize that the small Ming army had already left, and the battalions trampled on each other and shot at each other at night, but nearly 1,000 people died.

So Gebuku had to send another 3,000 men to watch over the towers, and then he captured a large number of people nearby, and together with his own soldiers, he dug earth and filled the trenches outside the city.

On the other side, Wang Yingxiong honestly nested in the city, only paying attention to guarding against sneak attacks. He knew that his ability to command troops was average, so he put all his energy on repairing the city wall, but used limited military funds to make Chengdu's defense impressive.

Finally, ten days later, the news of Qin Zuoming's victory over Jianmen Pass reached Chengdu.

Gebuku was immediately shocked - his grain, grass and baggage were all transported from Ningqiang through Jianmen Pass, and he only had less than ten days' worth of grain and rice in his camp. He looked at the first trench that had just been filled, and there was a feeling of despair in his heart, he was afraid that he would not even be able to touch the city wall of Chengdu for such a short time......

Haoge people are still in Shaanxi, but their hearts have already flown back to Beijing. In recent days, he had the same dream every day, in which he angrily denounced Dolgon for his incompetence and treachery, surrounded by many courtiers, who fell to his knees and begged for mercy, and then the Son of Heaven made him regent of the Qing Dynasty for his great military exploits.

In order to make this dream come true as soon as possible, he directly took 2,000 horsemen and rode all the way back to Beijing.

Weng Mao waited by the pipeline in Xi'an Mansion for two whole days, and finally saw the long-awaited Haoge and his party - he made up his mind to follow Prince Su back to Beijing to do business, and then took the boat of Prince Su.

In fact, Haoge came much earlier than Weng Mao expected, and he straddled his horse to follow Prince Su's team, and couldn't help but be surprised: "Your Highness has already arrived at the overall situation in northern Sichuan?" ”

Hauge is in a good mood, but he also has questions to answer, "Although it is not a big decision, it is not far off."

"Do you know that on the day of Zhang Xianzhong's death, more than seventy percent of the thieves and horses fled. The next day, Xing Ne took down the sword gate without blood, and the western thieves were like frightened birds, hoping that the army would flee.

"Later, Luo Luohun took the initiative to ask Ying to capture Shu on my behalf, so I agreed to him, and I could take a break to return to Beijing."

"King of Yanxi County?" Weng Mao frowned slightly when he heard this, "Xia Guan heard that he was a little ......"

Haoge smiled and waved his hand: "I know that this kid's heart is higher than the sky but he doesn't have many means, but at the moment, the Western Thieves have no leader, and the rout has been completed, and Nan Mingman is only 24,500 soldiers and horses." In this situation, even if I leave a horse monkey in Hanzhong, I will definitely not be defeated. ”

Weng Mao was still a little uneasy, "Your Highness, in fact, the general trend has been achieved, even if you stay in Hanzhong for a month or two, it is not too late to return east when the battle situation is stable, why are you in such a hurry?" ”

Seeing that several of the mounts were showing fatigue, Chahaug ordered them to camp on the spot and feed the horses. When he got off the horse, he took out a brocade from his bosom and handed it to Weng Mao mysteriously, "With this thing, do you think I can go back in a hurry?" ”

Weng Mao took it in surprise, and joy suddenly appeared on his face, "It's really His Highness Heavenly Help!" With this thing, Dolgon has great power and will be difficult to turn over! ”

What he was holding in his hand was the peace document signed by Qi Chongge and Zhang Xianzhong, although the wooden pavilion on Zeng's mountain was destroyed that day, but the book was pressed under a chair and was not damaged at all. The content of it was agreed that the Qing court recognized that Sichuan was the land of Daxi, and paid another 180,000 taels of silver to Zhang Xianzhong, and even married the princess of the clan to his righteous son! This is simply a loss of face in the Qing Dynasty!

Weng Mao could already imagine how much shock this letter would cause when it was published at the imperial court, and Dorgon's great achievement in leading his army into the customs would be basically offset by this peace negotiation. If he took the opportunity to mention the humiliation of the Mobei peace and the defeat of Jiangnan, the ministers of the court and the central government would definitely despise Dolgon.

And Shunzhi is young, and the Qing Dynasty still needs a person in charge of the house, who else will have this qualification and prestige except Prince Su?!

No wonder His Royal Highness Prince Su immediately left the Sichuan war and returned to Beijing, his decision was correct!

Weng Mao returned the book to Haoge, and immediately offered a few good strategies to expand the results of the battle, only to hear Haoge nodding again and again.

As the two were talking, they saw a Tang soldier with a small flag on his back galloping from behind and handed a military report to Haoge's personal guard.

Haoge opened the newspaper and checked it, and immediately smiled at Weng Mao: "Sure enough, it's as I expected!" Wang Zuntan broke through the Langzhong, captured the Queen of the West Thief, and recruited 192 West Thief officials under the puppet prince Sun Kewang and Prime Minister Wang Zhaolin.

"Gebuku's 13,000-strong army bypassed Mianzhou and attacked Chengdu directly. Although this method of play is a bit risky, the Ming army in Chengdu is less than 10,000 people, and they are all weak soldiers of Wang Yingxiong's army, so it should not be a problem to take it. ”

Weng Mao hurriedly said: "With the good news from northern Sichuan, plus that Japanese book, this great thing for His Highness will be accomplished!" ”

It's just that neither of them knew that the second half of these two military information was deleted by Luo Luohun - Wang Zuntan broke through Langzhong and won a lot, but then he was ambushed by the Ming army and the whole army was annihilated. However, when Gebuku's soldiers came to Chengdu, they were like dogs gnawing hedgehogs and had nowhere to eat, but the grain route was cut off by the Ming army.

In addition, there is a military situation that even Luo Luohun himself does not know for the time being, that is, Qin Zuoming has joined Qin Yiming and is leading the army to attack Guangyuan in the north.

……

Beijing.

On the Wuying Hall of the Forbidden City, all the courtiers frowned. Yesterday, there was an urgent report from outside the Sai that Teng Jisi was canonized by the Southern Ming Dynasty and called the king of Chahar. Abunai, the king of Chahar whom the Qing Dynasty had sealed, was defeated and fled to Tumut.

Dolgon sighed heavily, how could he have imagined that as soon as he pressed the gourd of Khalkha, Dunit, an inconspicuous little tribe, was cocked.

"Let's talk about it, what's the best way to ......"

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly heard his henchmen guarding outside the palace gate and said loudly: "Your Royal Highness the Prince Regent, Prince Su led the army back to Beijing, and has entered Guang'anmen at this time!" "I want to talk about "The Rise of the Ming Dynasty 1646" with more like-minded people, and pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
