Chapter 903: Sea Overlord Zheng Zhilong
The situation in the entire Central Plains is changing rapidly, the city head is changing the banner of the king, only Xu Yifan and Duoduo, who are in the center of the battlefield, do not have the slightest movement, the two of them each lead an army of more than 100,000 people, and they have been facing each other within a radius of two hundred miles, no one is sure to defeat the opponent, so they can only wait quietly for the opportunity.
Originally, Duoduo thought that if Azig took Jining, he would take advantage of the situation to take Caozhou, and then attack the main force of the Tianwei army thinking about Xu Yifan from two directions, but he didn't expect that Azig would go all the way south and go straight to Xuzhou. If you don't defeat Xu Yifan, what's the use of taking Nanjing City? As long as the Tianwei Army still exists, it will be able to launch a counterattack towards Manchuria at any time!
However, it is useless for Duoduo to be angry, now Azig is already anxious, and he can't control his twelfth brother, fortunately, now Xu Yifan's zigzag position, the tripartite coordination has been broken, Puyang Prefecture basically has no troops now, only Weihui Mansion and Zhangde Mansion remain, the two state capitals are one south and one north, and they have lost the effect of coordination, plus the arrival of Abatai, he has brought 30,000 elites to himself, and he has steadily occupied a favorable situation, dragging Xu Yifan along the Yellow River, On the contrary, it can create a good opportunity for Azig to attack Nanjing.
In desperation, Duoduo had no choice but to revise the book and report to Dorgon.
Soon, the chapter entered the Forbidden City, and now Dolgon finally felt a little more comfortable after sending Azig, after all, Zilharang, Azig plus Duoduo and Abatai in the middle, the entire Manchuria, except for himself, almost all the strong generals have already gone out, and the situation has been completely stabilized.
However, when Dorgon received the recital from Dorgon, his face sank immediately, confused, Azig fool! Is the city of Nanjing that important? If you don't destroy the main force of the Great Tomorrow Army, even if you take Nanjing City, what's the use? It's a big deal for people to change the capital, not to mention, leaving aside the stable rear in the Gyeonggi area, he led the army to drive straight into Xuzhou, the battle line is getting longer and longer, and the lone army is deep, once there is a mistake, then the unlucky one is the Manchurian army!
But what can be done now? I'm afraid that Azig has already arrived in Xuzhou now, after all, when Azig repaired the book to Duoduo, he had already arrived in Feng County, and Duoduo was playing a chapter for himself, back and forth, three or four days had already passed, and now Azig has definitely launched an attack on Xuzhou City!
"Bastard thing!!"
Dorgon threw the movement to the ground, but what could he do? Azig has already hit Xuzhou, if he is returning to the army at this time, he is afraid that he will have to take more than half a month, or even longer, such a long time, even if he wants to attack Xu Yifan, he has already left enough space for Xu Yifan to deal with it, he only needs to choke the crossing of the Yellow River, and then wave his army to the south and retreat to Kaifeng Mansion, he can resist Duoduo and Azig, and even defeat Azig in Henan, after all, Duoduo is blocked north of the Yellow River and does not come, It would be too difficult to defeat Xu Yifan with just this one Azig......
"Send the order down, order Geng Zhongming to lead the 10,000 newly formed green battalion to the south along the canal, take charge of the entire defense along the Grand Canal, be sure to protect the canal, and ensure that the military pay and materials from the north arrive safely in Nanzhili!"
Now Dolgon can only protect Azig's back as much as possible, otherwise, who knows when the Tianwei army will jump out and directly attack the canal's Caoyun town, once the Caoyun is interrupted, then Azig's fun will be great, without food and grass and military salary, the army will collapse!
Dolgon let out a long breath, now that Chen Yan was assassinated, Abatai and Azig rushed to the front line to help in the war, and there are not many available talents around him, Ning Wan and I can preside over internal affairs, but there is a big gap in military attainments, during this time, all military affairs are pressed on themselves, and this burden is heavy enough.
I really didn't expect that when the Ming Dynasty was in a desperate situation, it would have such a strong tenacity, a Zhu Jie actually established such a powerful Tianwei army in a short period of time, and even cultivated a large number of military talents, whether it was Xu Yifan, or Qin Mufeng, Li Dingguo and others, each of them was a good hand in his own right, look at Zhang Xianzhong and Ma Shiying, each of them has at least 100,000 troops, plus Zuo Liangyu, the three forces, this is the three trump cards that Chen Yan won for himself, I didn't expect that in less than two months, all of them collapsed, and before I broke through the defense line of the Yellow River, the three major allies all lay down, not that these three allies were too wasteful, but that Zhu Jie was too powerful, so strong that these people had no chance to turn over the river and the sea, think about it, even the elite of the two yellow flags, the 30,000 army against a Qin Mufeng took a lot of effort, not to mention the rabble of Zhang Xianzhong and Zuo Liangyu......
"Regent, now Prince Ying is rushing south to Jianghuai like this, it's too dangerous......"
Ning Wan on the side hesitated and said, "Although Prince Ying is strong and strong, who knows if Zhu Jie has a back hand?" When Zhang Xianzhong forced Huguang to march east along the river, and Ma Shiying pulled the flag to rebel, 200,000 troops entered Nanjing City, and in an instant, Zhu Jie let them all disappear, can Prince Ying defeat the defenders of Nanzhili this time and capture Nanjing City? ”
Dorgon smiled bitterly and replied, "What can be done about danger?" Azig has missed the opportunity to besiege Xu Yifan, what can he do now? I can only do my best to support him in attacking Jianghuai, but fortunately, before Chen Yan was assassinated, he had already contacted a new ally for us again, this time it depends on whether it can be done, maybe this ally is stronger than Zhang Xianzhong and Ma Shiying combined......"
Ning Wan was shocked in my heart, and there are allies? Where is the power independent of the imperial court in the entire Ming Dynasty now? Where are the forces that can affect the contrast between the Qing Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty?
"Lord Wang, don't you understand too well, we still have allies?"
"Of course, otherwise do you think this king will give Chen Yan such a high courtesy, although this guy has not achieved any achievements in the Ming Dynasty, but he has made immortal contributions to our Qing Dynasty, but this time it ......"
"That ally?"
Dolgon replied lightly: "In the southeast, there is still a male lion lying on the sea, but this male lion is not as easy to fiddle with as Zhang Xianzhong and Zuo Liangyu......
Ning Wan I lost my voice and shouted: "Southeast, the sea? Lord Wang, are you talking about Zheng Zhilong, the overlord of the sea? ”
