To the north of Daizhou is the left guard of Datong, and it has also completely reached the boundary of Datong Mansion, Cheng Xiaolian and they have no way to return the same way now, Mu Zhan has already led people to block their back road, if the two armies fight, they may not lose.

Cheng Xiaolian's subordinates are all Wang ~ auxiliary ministers who have saved money for many years of conquest, and Mu Zhan's subordinates are not the most elite cavalry of the Manchu Dynasty, as early as the beginning of the rebellion of the three feudatories, the most elite cavalry of the Manchu Qing Dynasty went south to quell the chaos, these cavalry may not be able to keep Cheng Xiaolian, but once the loss of too many soldiers and horses, and then return to the Hetao Plain, it is inevitable that Wu will not have a bad heart.

You must know that the envoys of the Manchu Qing Dynasty all died under his nose, if he can take these remnants of the former Ming Dynasty, the court will definitely not blame him, and maybe he will be rewarded.

So Cheng Xiaolian plans to pass through Datong Mansion, and then slowly retreat back to the grassland, Tuhai can't lead the army to make any encirclement on the boundless prairie, first, he doesn't have so many troops, second, he doesn't have such a long time, the only person in Shanxi who can fight now is him, if he doesn't look at Shanxi, Yuan Zonghao in Shaanxi will definitely take advantage of the situation.

But what Cheng Xiaolian didn't expect was that when they entered Datong Mansion, they were still resisted.

These officials in Datong Mansion have no choice, if the former Ming court really hits, they can't wait to shrink their heads and don't care about anything, but now they want to cross the border, this is slapping their face, it doesn't matter if they slap their face, when the court investigates it, their lives can't be saved, so after thinking about it again and again, they still decided to symbolically resist, and they can't stop it because of their lack of strength.

Cheng Xiaolian didn't expect this situation at first, and was taken aback by a team of officers and soldiers: "Did the Manchu Qing really send people to sit in Datong Mansion?" Otherwise, how could they have played? ”

Or is Yang Youcai well versed in the way of being an official, and smiled bitterly: "Your Highness, let's enter through the mirror, if they don't block it, and turn back to the Manchu Qing court to investigate it, they still have to ask for their heads?" ”

Cheng Xiaolian nodded: "It turns out that this is the truth, then we don't have to be polite, anyway, what they want is the name of loyalty to the country, and we can set off a bloody storm if we kill them." ”

Chen Chengan stopped him as soon as he could: "Your Highness, by all means." ”

"Why not?"

"At the beginning, those prefects and county orders were killed around Daizhou, because Daizhou was close to Beijing, and those prefects and county orders must be the lackeys of the Manchu court, and they would be killed if they were killed, but these days we also know that the people of Datong Mansion and the Manchu court are not in the same eye, and we will enter Shanxi in the future, which will be a great help for us, if we kill them now, the Manchu court will replace it with more loyal courtiers to guard Datong Mansion, and we will have to work hard."

Speaking of this, he glanced at Cheng Xiaolian: "Besides, these are Han people, let's fight the world, it's better for the Han people to kill less, those who are determined to follow the Manchu Qing Dynasty to slaughter them, these wavering ones, it is of great use to keep them." ”

Cheng Xiaolian arched his hand: "If it weren't for Mr. to teach me, I almost missed a big event, brothers, let's go." ”

Then the entire Ming army began to look at each other with the officials and soldiers of Datong Mansion, and no more than ten people were killed in each battle, and they all left with a false shot. The soldiers of Datong Mansion all secretly thought about the benefits of Daming in their hearts, this is the grace of life, and the rabble that people are about to kill them, it is a matter of waving their hands, but they just waved their hands and left, obviously seeing their intentions clearly, and they were unwilling to deal with them.

Of course, the forest is big and there are all kinds of birds, and when the generals of a prefecture and county heard about this, they felt that these Ming soldiers were all paper-paste, and they didn't dare to fight with their own people, and then ordered five hundred soldiers under him to stop this Ming thief and be his own step into the body!

Cheng Xiaolian couldn't cry or laugh when he saw this situation, and immediately beckoned and rushed forward, the cavalry of Datong Mansion had not seen blood for several years, plus most of them were still foot soldiers, and they didn't even block a round, so they were scattered and fled by the Ming army.

This time Cheng Xiaolian did not show mercy, if everyone wanted to achieve the merit of promotion on them, but he could do it, so he specially ordered to capture the county seat, and then killed the general's family members cleanly.

He proved to everyone with his actions that it is not that he can't beat you, that he is too lazy to fight you, and that if you don't know how to lift, this is your fate.

Besides, Mu Zhan, who came from afar, was already tired, thinking that as long as he could take a breath after fighting against the army of the former Ming Dynasty, it would not be too late to rest for a day or two before he fought, who would have thought that before he arrived at the place, people would run away, where would he dare to rest, if he rested in this situation, whether it was the court or Tuhai, he would have to trouble him.

Then followed Cheng Xiaolian's cavalry all the way to eat soil in the back, and finally Cheng Xiaolian destroyed a prefecture and county, and finally let him catch up with the shadow, and immediately ordered the whole army to attack, if they could be taken down here, no one could snatch this credit. And even if you can't beat it, it doesn't matter, as long as it drags on for a few days, Tuhai's men and horses can rush over.

Tuhai received his news, after all, he still retreated from the front of Tongguan, Mu Zhan couldn't help but look at Tuhai, if he was right, Tongguan was almost about to fall, in this case, Tuhai still has the emperor's will in his hands, and the work of recovering the land is a great achievement, I didn't expect him to hesitate at all, and directly led the soldiers and horses to retreat, although he lost the opportunity to make a great contribution, but the civil and military of the court will definitely remember his benefits, and there will be an impeachment of him in the future, everyone should also think about this kindness.

As for the emperor, of course, he is young and vigorous, and he can't wait to drive the royal expedition in person, so how can he care about being placed under the dangerous nest, so there may not be too many rewards for Tu Hai's opportunity this time, and there may be reprimands, but Tu Hai's move to show grace to the Manchu Dynasty can be regarded as a steady profit without loss.

The reason why Tuhai withdrew the army, he also cared about this, he was not worried that the emperor would suspect him, but the Manchu Dynasty civil and military thought was too much, only a thousand days to be a thief, there was no reason to prevent thieves for a thousand days, and if he offended the Manchu Dynasty, he couldn't prevent the open guns and hidden arrows in the court, it was better to withdraw the army to give them a peace of mind, Tongguan City had been beaten by himself, and he didn't care about a month's time.

Mu Zhan finally caught up with Cheng Xiaolian's army in Hebao, Datongfu Town, but looking at the appearance of Cheng Xiaolian's army, it seemed that he was not surprised at all to catch up.
