Zhou An's face changed, and he said in a low voice: "My lord, are we going to die to collect the Zhending Mansion?" How can this be held? Once the main force of the Qing army arrives, we will sit in the lonely city, without any reinforcements, and we will not be able to hold it at all......"

"If you can't keep it, you have to keep it!"

Qin Mufeng said coldly: "Zhou An, two thousand elite cavalry will be handed over to you, lead all the elite cavalry to hide in Taihang Mountain, bring enough grain and grass, you are killing people and setting fire everywhere outside, I will stay in Zhending Mansion to attract the main force of the Qing army, but I want to see what Dolgon and Duoduo can do to me!" The order went down, took out 10,000 stone grain from the treasury, and gave it all to the people in the city, and took out 30,000 taels of silver from the treasury to recruit troops, as long as you are willing to join the infantry battalion, you will be rewarded with ten taels of silver directly, and five taels of silver per month. Zhending Mansion now has a population of no less than 200,000, just being strong can make up forty or fifty thousand, I only need to recruit three thousand, hum, even if it is a weak man, it is stronger than the military men in the current Fubiao camp! Lao Tzu just wants to live and die with Zhending Mansion and attract all the main forces of the Qing army! ”

Zhou An, Zhao Xin and a few others couldn't keep up with Qin Mufeng's out-of-the-box thinking, and they stuck to the Zhending Mansion? It's a dead end!

"My lord, I can't help it, once the Zhending Mansion is besieged, it will be a dead end, even the emperor will never allow you to do this, once you make a mistake, the entire Ming Dynasty is equivalent to missing a solid arm......"

Zhou An'an was anxious, and hurriedly persuaded, this time he said that he couldn't listen to the adult, and the emperor was reluctant to let the adult die!

Qin Mufeng said coldly: "Don't worry, just if I defend the Zhending Mansion, I will definitely fall sooner or later, but don't forget, we are not alone, once Duoduo sends troops to come, the Daimyo's Mansion will be empty, and it will be able to withstand Yifan's next thunder offensive?" What's more, we still have 10,000 people led by Dong Xi in Dongchang Mansion, this time, I just want to create an excellent opportunity for Xu Yifan to launch a counteroffensive! ”

This is true, if Xu Yifan knew that Qin Mufeng was defending Zhending Mansion and the Qing army was besieging it, I was afraid that his good brother Xu Yifan would try to rescue him desperately, and at that time, the entire Gyeonggi area would be disrupted, and the outcome would be really unpredictable!

There is not much time left for Qin Mufeng, if the Qing army reacts quickly enough, at most three or five days, the troops will be under the city of Zhendingfu, and Zhao Xin will be asked to rectify the Fubiao battalion and Zhendingwei in the city; On the one hand, let Lu Tao start to recruit troops in the city, three thousand people, three thousand people, at other times, recruit three thousand troops, maybe not easy, now it is too simple to recruit three thousand people, because Qin Mufeng gave too generous treatment, as long as he is hired, then directly give ten taels of silver, once he enters the barracks, everyone is paid five taels of silver a month, five taels, even if it is a cavalry, there is no such generous treatment!

If it weren't for Lu Tao with an elite army to maintain order, I am afraid that the elite soldiers who applied for the draft would directly drown Lu Tao.

The standard is very simple, the first one, carry the stone lock in front of you with a weight of at least one hundred and fifty catties on your shoulders, walk a hundred steps, and then walk back, this depends on the strength of the applicant, can carry the stone lock in one hundred and fifty catties to walk two hundred steps, this strength alone is enough; The second, erect a flagpole two feet high, almost a foot thick, can climb to the top of the flagpole within thirty breaths, this is to see the agility of the recruit, with strength, and then have flexible skills, as long as you see blood again, follow the veteran to fight two battles, will become the backbone of the army, as for experience, that can only be sharpened from actual combat.

At least 20,000 strong people came to enlist, and in the end only 3,000 people were selected, close to one of the four, so the selected soldiers, the combat power is strong, it is definitely overwhelming any infantry, at least the potential is so, even the right town of Nanjing did not select the soldiers so strictly, and can not do the slightest false, on the spot trial, failed, can only retreat aside, selected, then can directly enter the back of the camp.

In three days, 3,000 officers and soldiers plus 3,000 strong people were all selected, and then there were 1,000 musketeers, the entire Zhending Mansion, the inherent strength reached 7,000 people, less than 30 miles west of the Zhending Mansion is the boundless Taihang Mountains, surrounded by mountains, mountains and mountains, not to mention the installation of 2,000 elite horses, even if 10,000 elite horses run in, there is no sign at all, even if the 20,000 elites of the Yellow Flag in Beijing City are all pulled to Zhending Mansion, and they don't want to take it down easily.

In three days, the news of the fall of Zhending Mansion spread, especially Yu Neng, who was defeated in a battle and almost lost his life, although he survived, he left the sequelae of concussion, and it was almost impossible to recover his original bravery.

Yu Neng ran from Zhending Mansion to Baoding Mansion in one breath, panicked like a bird with a bow, two or three hundred miles away, it took only one day, and he ran to, came to Baoding Mansion, did not dare to delay at all, and immediately sent a six-hundred-mile urgent war report to the Beijing Division, a loss of Qinghe County is nothing, but the loss of Zhending Mansion is different, it is an important town in the south of Beijing, once Zhending Mansion is lost, then there is only a barrier left in front of the capital, this Ming army has formed a huge threat to Beijing City!

Six hundred miles of urgent war report, in less than a day, the battle report was sent to the Beijing Division.

In the Qianqing Palace, Dolgon was furious at Abatai, and the two elites of the Yellow Banner of Niu Lu were killed by the Ming army almost unconsciously in Qinghe County, and even where the Ming army came from is not clear, and the spies distributed in the territory of Zhili are no different from the blind!

A few thousand stones of grain is nothing, it's a big deal to transfer another batch of grain to the south, but the elite cavalry of the two Niu Lu was wiped out by the Ming army in one fell swoop, and the most infuriating thing is that all the six hundred elite soldiers of the Yellow Banner were cut off their heads! The elite cavalry of the two Niu Lu, the Zhenghuang Banner is only sixty Niu Lu in total! It's distressing to die, six hundred died in one go! The most terrible thing is that there is a hidden armed force in the hinterland of Zhili that can encircle and annihilate the elite of the 600 Zhenghuang Banner, which is so terrifying that the entire Gyeonggi area wants to settle down!

Can Dolgon not be in a hurry?

Abatai, who was in charge of Gyeonggi defense, was scolded for his bloody head, and he didn't dare to say a word on the side, shame, six hundred elites were killed, and he didn't even notice it, knowing that a few days later, the news came to Jingshi, and the shame was thrown to grandma's house!
