Chapter 784: Azig Arrives
In Nanjing City, Zhu Jie is facing an embattled situation, and in the eyes of outsiders, it is already close to a desperate situation.
Beijing City, Dolgon is not comfortable, nothing else, Jierharang's Western Route Army suffered a fiasco, not only the Qing army since the defeat since the entry of the pass, but also the largest fiasco encountered by the Eight Banners since Taizu Nurhachi raised the army, the first battle lost more than 40,000 elites, the Mongolian Eight Banners and the Zhenghong Banner were completely broken up, as for the Guanning Iron Cavalry, needless to say, this number can even be canceled.
This is not counting, the unlucky Jierharang was pursued by Li Dingguo and Shu Xinchen all the way, retreated from Zheng County to Mengjin Ferry in one breath, and finally had to cross the Yellow River and retreated into Shanxi again.
Dolgon's anger was like thunder, and the antiques in the palace didn't know how much they were smashed, and the palace maids and eunuchs were killed by at least twenty or thirty people with rods in a few days.
When Dolgon was constantly angry, Beijing City ushered in another master, Prince Azig of England, who led 30,000 elite banners to protect the little emperor of Shunzhi and the queen mother to Beijing City.
"Dolgon, this Zhu Jie has really become a big problem in our hearts, I knew that today, we should have got rid of it when we were in Manchuria!"
Azig said in a deep voice.
Dolgon waved his hand and said in a muffled voice: "There is no regret medicine in the world, let the tiger return to the mountain, there will be endless troubles, now we have to consider the situation in front of us!" Zilharan suffered heavy casualties, and without three or five months, it was impossible to recover; Duoduo stationed troops in the Daimyo Mansion alone, facing Xu Yifan's Tianwei Army, it was also difficult to advance half an inch, and now that Shunde Mansion was still in the hands of the Ming army, the situation was too unfavorable for us. ”
Azig said in a deep voice: "Why don't I go and change back to Abatai, replenish all the 30,000 elites into the Western Route Army, and go out again?" ”
Dolgon nodded and replied: "Since Henan can't be taken for a while, then let Duoduo hold the Daimyo's mansion, and then you lead the Western Route Army to enter Shaanxi and Gansu, we must stabilize the situation in the entire north in the shortest possible time, as for the army to the south of the Yangtze River, we can only wait and see how the situation in the south of the Yangtze River changes." Now Chen Yan has helped us play three trump cards in a row, and if these three trump cards can play a role, we still have a chance! ”
Azig asked, "Three trump cards?" Which three trump cards? ”
Dolgon sneered: "The first trump card is Zhang Xianzhong, I adopted the strategy of Chen Yan and Zhang Xianzhong, sent Sony south to Sichuan, and reached an alliance with Zhang Xianzhong, Zhang Xianzhong has agreed to send troops to Huguang, Huguang is the rear of Jiangnan, and Huguang is caught in the war, which is enough to make Zhu Jie unable to sleep; The second trump card and the third chapter trump card is that Chen Yan sent people to Xu Yili and bought off Zuo Liangyu and Ma Shiying, both of whom have promised to surrender to our Qing Dynasty, and will raise the banner against Zhu Jie in the near future, when Zhang Xianzhong commanded more than 100,000 troops in Huguang, Zuo Liangyu's tens of thousands of troops in Jiangxi, and Ma Shiying's tens of thousands of troops in Jiangbei, will form a situation of encirclement of Nanjing, once Nanjing falls, Zhu Jie is the head, that is our best opportunity to unify the world! Even if the three trump cards can't take Nanjing City, it is enough to form a huge threat to Nanjing, and it is difficult for the Tianwei army to return to the army, and once Jiangbei falls into the hands of Ma Shiying, the connection between Nanjing and Henan will be completely cut off, Xu Yifan can only pass through the sky, and he will definitely not be able to escape this catastrophe! ”
Azig was overjoyed and shouted: "Okay, this Chen Yan didn't expect it to be really useful, he won three strong reinforcements for us in one breath, and now all the elites of the Ming Dynasty are concentrated in the Central Plains, and the defense of Jiangnan is empty, he Zhu Jie has three heads and six arms, and he will definitely not be able to parry, no, we will not attack Shaanxi and Gansu, that is, we will send troops to Zhili and Shandong, continue to attack the Central Plains, and solve the Tianwei army without backup in one fell swoop!" As long as we solve the Tianwei Army, even if we pay a certain price, we are worth it! ”
Dorgon frowned and asked, "Encircling and suppressing the Tianwei Army?" Are we sure enough? ”
Azig said urgently: "Why are you not sure? Dolgon, now this is our best opportunity, Xu Yifan can't get any backup, our army is from Shanxi, Zhili, Shandong three arrows at once, how can Xu Yifan resist? There are only 100,000 troops under his command, even if we have suffered a heavy loss, the number of troops is still about 200,000, and most of them are elite forces, Xu Yifan will definitely not be able to withstand our huge pressure! ”
Dolgon nodded, and said in a deep voice: "Since this is the case, then send an order to Jierharang, let him defend the Mengjin ferry, do not let the Ming army cross the Yellow River, protect Shanxi, and prepare the whole army to fight again." ordered Abatai and Duoduo to deal with the bomb in Shunde Mansion as soon as possible, and gather all their forces around the Daimyo's Mansion; Azig, thank you for your hard work, just came to the capital, and you have to lead the army again, lead the 30,000 elites under your command, send troops to Shandong, go south from Dezhou, and go straight to Dongchang Mansion, ready to occupy the entire territory of Shandong, and outflank Xu Yifan's back road again from behind! The action must be fast, the soldiers are fast, Zhu Jie will not give us too much time to prepare! ”
Azig nodded excitedly, and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, Shandong is only, without any elite of Mingjun, in less than a month, I can occupy the entire territory of Shandong!" ”
What Azig said is not bad, now Shandong does not have any elite forces, only has more than 10,000 troops in Caozhou and Yanzhou, in front of Azig, it is not enough to see at all!
"How is the little emperor now, in Shengjing, the queen mother and the emperor don't have any other reactions, right?"
Dolgon brought the topic to the little emperor and the queen mother, after all, he is only the regent now, and the nominal little emperor Shunzhi is the real co-lord of the world, and he has to get by on the surface.
"There is nothing else, it's just that the Empress Dowager asked to invite a master for the little emperor, and I can't disobey the Empress Dowager's will, so I invited the best Hanchen master and Manchu master to teach him......"
"Confused!"
Dorgon whispered, "Let the best master teach him?" Will he turn his hand over to us after he has learned it? You must understand that the fire and the flowers are the most dangerous for us, and now our brothers are the most powerful people, but I have not ascended to the great treasure for a day, and these powers may one day disappear, and even our whole family, all of them will die without a place to be buried! ”
