Chapter 66: The Chaotic World

As Yang Feng thought, just when his army went out of Jinzhou and went north to Guangning, the Qing army stationed in Jizhou and Baodi also fought out to encircle Yutian at the same time, and the main force of the Qing army in Beijing also continued to kill, and even Duoduo, who was pursuing Li Zicheng, led his army to turn around and return.

Dorgon had no choice.

Yang Feng can think of what he can think of, and he can also think of it.

The next step for the Ming army to conquer Jinzhou must be Guangning, Jinzhou did not block the dog emperor, so Guangning, who did not even have a cannon, could not stop it, that place was not a military town for a long time, it was simply a city behind the defense line that was almost undefended before, once Guangning was conquered by Yang Feng, then the Qing army in the pass would become a lone army. But it is impossible to go back to the rescue, and that will lose everything obtained in the previous bloody battle, only by attacking Jidong with all his strength can the dog emperor be forced back, although Jidong's opponent is not so easy to deal with, but at least it is still within the scope of human beings.

It is said that at this time, Dolgon had already eliminated Yang Feng from the human category.

In this way, in addition to leaving Nikan in Baoding to lead 10,000 Eight Banners to guard Li Zicheng, plus the previous 10,000 Mongolian vassals and Jiang Jiu to attack Taiyuan, and 5,000 followed Yuan Yuzong to attack Shandong, the remaining main force of the Eight Banners together with the Mongolian vassals had a total of 60,000 troops, all of which were led by him to press towards eastern Hebei.

As for Li Zicheng......

Of course, Li Zicheng watched the excitement.

He was being chased by the Qing army and was out of breath, and suddenly there was such a good thing, so why not take a good rest and drink a cup of tea, and by the way, settle accounts with the gentry who were cheering to welcome the Qing army before!

He has retreated to Zhengding at this time, Liu Zongmin passed Taihang one step ahead of him, together with the Shun army who stayed in Taiyuan to hold the Shiling Pass, the two armies crossed the Taihang with the Jingcheng Road, originally in history he fled back to Shanxi from here and was driven to Xi'an by the Qing army that followed, so it was driven to Jiugong Mountain, and now the Qing army that drove him back to fight Yang Feng.

However, Li Zicheng is not ready to stay in Zhengding.

His nephews Li Guo and Gao Yigong have already led the vanguard to continue south to Luoyang, and after Duoduo turned around and returned, he had no pressure, and Jiang Hao and 10,000 Mongolian troops could not open Taiyuan, even if he opened Taiyuan, he still had the Cold Spring Pass and the Yin Di Pass of the Bird Mouse Valley. The original Yuzong of the eastern front was not interested in fighting him, this guy was under the banner of pursuit, and went south along the canal with the support of the local gentry, and he had already hit Jinan, and the Holy Duke of Confucius Jiayan of Qufu personally ran to Jinan to meet the Qing Dynasty, and all the Shun troops in the original Shandong retreated westward.

However, Huang Fei took the opportunity to run and snatch back his station, Dengzhou.

The situation in the world at this time is as follows.

First of all, Daming Xing, that is, the Yangfeng Group, controls the eastern Hebei and western Liaoning corridors, and there is also a Dengzhou enclave, which is small but strong, and there is an undefeated god of war.

The control area of the Ming Dynasty starts from Xuzhou in the north and then turns to Fengyang, and then along the Huai River to the west to the Dabie Mountain line, and then to the west to Wuchang, the entire Jiangnan south of this line, of course, except for Sichuan, but this control area is theoretical, in fact, Jiangbei they can really control Yangzhou. Other places are under the control of those small warlords who nominally belong to the Ming Dynasty, and among these warlords are loyal such as Huang Degong, some are waiting for the enemy to surrender to the door, such as Liu Zeqing, some are determined to dominate one side, such as Zuo Liangyu, and some are like Gao Jie, in short, this is what it looks like.

The Qing army controlled Xinzhou, Baoding, Linqing, and Jinan, north of which did not belong to the territory of the Ming Dynasty.

The Shun army controls Taiyuan, Zhengding and then south to the Yellow River to Xuzhou, and then the territory between the control areas of the Ming Dynasty in the south, but it is said that it is control, and he does not know how many people listen to him, in fact, Li Zicheng's subordinates have more grass on the wall. His so-called Jiedu envoys are also the same as the Jiangbei warlords of the Ming Dynasty, and even inferior to those Jiangbei warlords, the latter can at least take care of the face of the court, and the Jiedu envoys under him are actually just pulling a flag, and they can change to another one at any time if needed!

There are also some places in the middle of Qingshun that do not have a clear belonging, simply one hand Dashun banner and one hand Daqing flag, and even someone takes one more Daming flag, anyway, whoever comes they will open the door, even if the front foot is gone, they will immediately welcome the new Wang Shi.

Alas, the world is so chaotic......

It's always good to wear a few more amulets.

This was the situation in the summer of 1644.

Uh, forget Zhang Xianzhong.

Lao Zhang is still conquering the city in Sichuan!

He hasn't broken the CD yet, and he hasn't been called the Emperor of Daxi yet, but except for Grandma Qin's stone pillar, he can't run out of his palm anywhere else.

Of course, these chaos have nothing to do with Yang Feng, he is now thinking about the Qing Dynasty.

Just when the Qing army was attacking the east of Hebei, after four days of marching, His Majesty the Emperor led an army of 20,000 to Guangning, he left Zhang Mingzhen in Jinzhou, and the material transportation from the Daling River ferry to Guangning on the road of more than 100 miles also needed enough troops to protect, after all, there were more than 10,000 Qing troops in Shenyang, Liaoyang, and Niuzhuang, and there were also vassal Mongols, who could attack him from behind.

It was an army of 20,000 that finally arrived in Quang Ninh.

"There are not enough troops!"

Standing outside Guangning City, Yang Feng overlooked this famous ancient city and said helplessly.

This was the first major fortress in Liaodong suppressed by the Ming Dynasty, Li Chengliang's lair, is an absolute male city, two thousand meters long from north to south, one point six thousand meters wide from east to west, the four corners and Ningyuan have similar corner towers like fortresses, the five gates each have the protection of the urn city, the height of the city wall is more than ten meters, the total circumference of 8,500 meters is almost twice that of Jinzhou, the twin towers in the city are towering, even if it is put in the Guannei, this is also the standard of the top city, it can be imagined that the city was prosperous back then, but now it has become the nest of the Tartars.

"Are there many Han people in the city?"

Yang Feng asked Tang Yu beside him.

"There are no Han people, after the Tartars captured Guangning, they drove all the people who were not killed to the east of the Liao River and gave them to the banner people as slaves, and the residents here are all banner people who moved later, because they were worried that the slaves would flee, their slaves were also captured from Goryeo, and even if there were Han people in the city, they were all Tartars of the Han army banner people."

Tang Yu said.

"That's okay, let them be sacrifices to the Han people who died in Liaodong that year! Sent an edict to Li Yutian, asking him to prepare as many things as possible such as wine jars, and also ordered the armies to choose a place to camp, and then cut down wood to build trebuchets, and build as many as possible. ”

Yang Feng said.

His soldiers are too few, even if he blasts through the city wall of Guangning, he has to face the resistance of all people in the city, 20,000 against 20,000, and those women, don't think that the women of the banner people can't use knives and guns, and then fight street battles in such a city of more than three square kilometers, even if they can take it, I'm afraid they will have to kill and wound half of the soldiers, if that's the case, even if he takes Guangning, he will not be able to move forward, maybe he will face certain dangers, in this case, then just play ruthlessly!

With the issuance of the holy decree, the 20,000 Ming troops attacking Quang Ninh immediately set up camp.

In this case, there is no need to worry that the Qing army in the city will break through, their duty is to nail to the ground to contain the Ming army, break through and run to contain a fart, in this case, the Ming army directly camped in the south of the city, and at the same time as the camp, a large number of soldiers cut down trees in the mountains of Yiwulu and began to make trebuchets. This ancient siege weapon has rarely been used since the appearance of cannons, and now Emperor Yang suddenly made this a very dazed subordinate, but he was at a loss, since it was a holy decree, it must be strictly implemented.

At the same time, Li Yutian of Shanhaiguan also got the will, and he also began to collect wine jars everywhere in confusion, but let the merchants who sold this make a lot of money.

Just when Yang Feng was preparing to attack Guangning City, the great battle in eastern Hebei intensified.

After besieging Yutian, the Qing army immediately encircled Fengrun, and at the same time, the Qing army of Zunhua also attacked Santun camp to the east, and Wu Sangui led the main force of 40,000 Guanning troops out of Lulong to enter the Zhongtun Acropolis in Kaiping, and launched a small-scale attack on the Qing army besieging the two places from the periphery. After receiving the holy decree that they could enjoy the treatment of righteous people after the war, the common people of the two cities and the 30,000 Ming troops stationed in the two cities also worked together, coupled with a large number of cannons and the materials stored before, they also stubbornly resisted the Qing army.

Don't underestimate these small counties.

Zhili has always been the hardest hit area of the Tartar attack, which of these counties is not easy to deal with, that is all fortress level, taking the modern inconspicuous Yutian as an example, the circumference of the city wall has reached three kilometers, and the height is more than eight meters, even if Seoul at this time is not at this height, the outside is also covered with bricks, with the use of a new gun carriage and a cannon with an aiming device, and a large number of birds produced in the south of the Yangtze River, the same also made that Dolgon a false fire.

The latter are now afraid of casualties.

The Qing army's attack was no longer as fierce as before, after all, they also knew that their men were fighting less and less.

Dorgon was afraid.

He entered the pass with 70,000 banners, and lost more than 10,000 in the Huairou War, plus the sporadic skirmishes with the Shun army since then, and several skirmishes with the Ming army, there have been 15,000 eight banner athletes who have fallen in the pass, in fact, he now has only 55,000 eight banners in his hand, because Yang Feng attacked Jinzhou, he could not get reinforcements from the rear, if he attacked Jidong and lost one or two thousand, then he would not play, and go directly out of the customs and return to his hometown.

In other words, it is very difficult for him now!

He wanted to transfer those wall grasses who surrendered to be cannon fodder, but those wall grasses also saw his decline, and they didn't take him seriously anymore, Jiang Huang was a soldier who would not be sent, it was his own to take down Taiyuan, and it was Dolgon's to take down Jidong, but the dead were his own, and he didn't do this kind of stupid thing. The same is true of Yuan Yuzong, the order given to him by Dolgon has been sent to Jinan, and this guy promised to come back to help in the war, but it is said that the Shandong thief army is coming back again, and the Ming army occupies Dengzhou and is about to attack Jinan......

Well, he said so himself.

Even asking the gentry of Zhili for money and food had to cause a lot of trouble.

In other words, Prince Rui now admires the dog emperor a little, just his violent temper, how did he endure it with this group of miscellaneous people all these years?
