Won Taiyuan City, Sun Chuanting and Li Dingguo's army only repaired in Taiyuan City for two days, leaving the Red Lady and her Fengyang Town to stay in Taiyuan, shocking the entire Shanxi, Sun Chuanting led Li Dingguo, Zhong Yue, Gao Jie The three general soldiers went straight to Zhending Mansion, from Taiyuan City to Zhending Mansion, the distance is not too far, but it is not close, four hundred miles away, tens of thousands of foot cavalry marching with all their might, it also takes seven or eight days, plus the time delayed in Taiyuan, arriving at Zhending Mansion, it is also half a month after the Battle of Fenglin Mountain.

However, the news of the defeat of Fenglin Mountain has spread throughout Shanxi and Zhili in just a few days.

Jierharang led the remnants of the defeated generals, fled all the way east, day and night, and finally entered the Zhending Mansion on the third day, at this time, the troops under his command were less than 4,000 people, Zu Dashou and Shi Tingzhu all died in the chaos, and the rest escaped only Zu Kuan, Geng Jingzhong and other generals.

Jierharang's heart is finally a little more steady, with Zhending Mansion in his hands, he no longer has to worry about his life, however, no one knows when Sun Chuanting and Li Dingguo will come to the city, at that time, just relying on the current strength in his own hands, plus the strength of Zhending Mansion, less than 10,000 people, to contend with the tens of thousands of troops under Sun Chuanting Li Dingguo, there is basically no possibility, after all, the current Zhending Mansion has gone through a big battle of Qin Mufeng of the former, and the city defense has been dilapidated. The collapsed city walls were even hastily erected with some green bricks or even broken stones, and once the heavy artillery was pulled up and bombarded, it didn't take a day or two for these walls to collapse again.

At this time, how long Zilharang could hold the Zhending Mansion was not at all.

"Come, immediately send a six-hundred-mile urgent document to the imperial court, ask the emperor and the regent for guilt, ask the imperial court to prepare early, and immediately send a letter to Prince Yu, asking Prince Yu to mobilize troops and prepare to strengthen the defense of Zhending Mansion!"

In just one day and one night, Zilharang's emergency recital was sent to the city of Beijing.

Dolgon's heart was half cold when he got the news, just over half a month, Mengjin Ferry fell, Zezhou fell, Qinzhou fell, Taiyuan fell, and the entire Western Route Army was more than 60,000 people, almost all of them were wiped out, and the whole army was wiped out!

I just got Zheng Zhilong in Fujian, and then Zhu Jie gave himself another punch, and he was so busy in vain, Jierharang, a stupid man, 60,000 people, actually let people beat the flowers and rivers in just half a month, and even 30,000 Manchurian elite horses were completely finished!

However, now what I have to think about is not whether Jierharang is stupid or not, but how to deal with the aftermath next, once the Central Plains battle situation changes dramatically, then the next series of chain reactions will affect the comparison of strength between the Qing Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty, is Zheng Zhilong really sincerely accepting his recruitment? The ghost believes that once the momentum is not right, who knows if he will defect again? At the beginning, Zu Dashou turned against him several times in a row.

"Lord Wang, the current situation is very passive......"

Su Ke Saha on the side said in a low voice, "Now that Taiyuan City has fallen, the four military towns of Sun Chuanting and Li Dingguo will transfer troops to the east at any time and go straight to Zhending Mansion, once Zhending Mansion is falling, the connection between Prince Yu of the Daimyo Mansion and the capital will be completely cut off, and when the time comes, either Sun Chuanting will lead his division north and go straight to the capital, or go south and besiege the Daimyo's Mansion with Xu Yifan, we will all be helpless!" ”

"I know!"

Dolgon replied angrily, "Now it seems that it was a mistake for us to let Azig go south to attack Nanzhili, Azig has now arrived in Huai'an Mansion, and he took away sixty or seventy thousand elites in one go, which makes our troops in the Central Plains battle situation insufficient, and Azig is thousands of miles away, and it has become a problem to return reinforcements, maybe this is Zhu Jie's strategy to lure the enemy deep......"

Dolgon regrets it now, but it's useless to regret it now, ordering Azig to withdraw his troops? Not to mention that at this time, Zhu Jie will do his best to entangle Azig, even if he doesn't entangle Azig, once he comes and goes, it will take at least a month for Azig to be able to rush back to the front line of Daimyo's Mansion and Dongchang Mansion, not to mention that Zhu Jie will definitely not have the opportunity for Azig to return to help at this time.

"Then now we have only one way, that is, to ask Prince Yu to immediately withdraw his troops from the Daimyo's Mansion and retreat to Zhending Mansion, as long as Zhending Mansion is held, then the entire Zhili will still be under our control!" Prince Yu still has 70,000 or 80,000 troops under his command, and they are all elite forces in Manchuria, sticking to Zhending Mansion, even if Sun Chuanting and Xu Yifan's troops are far superior to ours, they will definitely not be able to take Zhending Mansion! ”

Jialazhang Jingtulai said in a deep voice.

Dorgon shouted, "Foolish! Withdraw troops to Zhendingfu? Do you want the whole of Shandong? What to do with Azig's army of sixty or seventy thousand? The two sides are separated by more than a thousand miles, once Shandong is recaptured by the Ming court, Azig's retreat will be completely cut off, and when the time comes, it will be a dead end! Where can we afford such a huge loss of casualties today? ”

Turai blushed and stopped talking, Turai was just a military general, where did Dolgon have such a long-term strategic vision.

Ning Wan and I said in a low voice: "Qi Song Regent, now we have no better way, even if we don't let Prince Yu withdraw his troops, we need to increase the troops of Zhending Mansion, and be fast, don't leave any chance for Sun Chuanting, otherwise, once Zhending Mansion is besieged, we want reinforcements, we will become passive and abnormal......"

"Reinforcements? It's simple! ”

Dolgon said hatefully: "Lord Ning, where are the soldiers in our capital now?" There are only 30,000 green battalions and Manchurian elite cavalry in Beijing City, and most of them are green battalions that have just been prepared, and their combat power is very limited. Besides, these 30,000 people are still insufficient to defend the city of Beijing, how can we increase our troops in Zhendingfu? ”

"Then drop Abatai and Yue Le to lead the two yellow flags back to Zhending Mansion!"

Ning Wan said urgently: "Now we have no other way, we can only temporarily stabilize the situation in Zhending Mansion now, Prince Yu still has tens of thousands of troops in his hands, as long as Zhending Mansion is in the hands of the imperial court, Prince Yu will not be in great danger!" But once the Zhending Mansion is lost, then Prince Yu will be really dangerous! ”

Dorgon nodded slowly, Ning Wan's idea was not clever, but it was the only way.

Dolgon replied: "Prepare a generous gift for the edict, order Sukh Saha as a special envoy to Chahar and Ordos, ask the Mongol tribes to send troops to the Central Plains, tell Abneh and Longdake that within a month, they must raise 30,000 Mongolian cavalry to go south, enter the Central Plains from Xuanfu to help in the war, defeat the Ming court, and the Qing Dynasty promised to give the whole of Shanxi to the Mongol tribes as horse farms, if the will is violated, I want their heads!" ”
