Chapter Forty-Seven: Siege Wei and Rescue Zhao

"General Shenwu, the last general has seen it, I believe that you will be safe in Shanhaiguan." When Zhao Yungang led the Xuanjia army to retreat back to the city, Wu Sangui had already come over.

Wu Sangui was able to stand tall in the officialdom of the late Ming Dynasty in the ups and downs of the Huan Sea for decades, and naturally he has his advantages, and this kind of seeing people and talking about people is a big advantage.

However, the only thing Wu Sangui didn't expect was that Zhao Yunnai was a character that Chongzhen exchanged from the system, and they didn't pay attention to other people's praise at all, because there was only one thought in their minds, and that was loyalty.

"If you are so brave and brave, it seems that we can launch a counterattack against the Tartars." Wu Mingjia, as Wu Sangui's confidant general, is the only remaining general of the Guanning Iron Cavalry, and it is also the first time to see such a brave army, Wu Mingjia can even assert that if the Guanning Iron Cavalry and this Ming army meet, they will definitely lose badly.

There is no other reason, because from the time Zhao Yun led this heavy armor iron to ride out, Wu Mingjia had already counted the number of people, five hundred. And when this heavy armored iron horse came back, Wu Mingjia counted it again, and the five hundred people were almost unscathed.

"Hold on." When Wu Sangui and Wu Mingjia looked at Zhao Yun with hope, Zhao Yun spit out these two words.

This is the order given to him by Chongzhen before Zhao Yun came, to contain the Qing army along the Shanhaiguan Pass, as a system personnel, of course Zhao Yun must complete it to the letter.

Jingshi, at this time, Zhu Youzhen is dealing with the aftermath, although Li Zicheng has been executed, but it does not mean that the problem of the displaced people has been solved, without Li Zicheng, maybe there will be a Zhang Zicheng Zhao Zicheng.

More importantly, Li Zicheng's prime minister Niu Jinxing is still stationed in Xi'an, where there are hundreds of thousands of troops of the Dashun army, in addition to Li Zicheng's group of displaced people, the Zhang Xianzhong group stationed in western Sichuan is also a big headache for Zhu Youzhen.

In later generations, he couldn't understand the difficulties of Zhu Youzhen's two-front battle, but now that he has become Zhu Youzhen, he understands how uncomfortable it is to fight on two fronts.

Now Zhu Youzhen can only stick to the Beijing division, and he can't send extra troops to recover nearby states and counties, and now he can only expect reinforcements from the south.

"Otomo, has the holy decree asking Nanjing to send reinforcements to the north has been issued?" Although Zhu Youzhen was very busy, he still hoped to be able to personally inquire about the reinforcements.

"Your Majesty, the day before yesterday, I had already ordered someone to send 800 li to Nanjing City urgently, and it is estimated that Nanjing has almost received it." For the things that the emperor personally ordered, Wang Chengen naturally did not dare to be sloppy, in order to ensure that Nanjing could receive the holy decree, Wang Chengen sent five groups of envoys in a row.

"Otomo? Do you have anything to say? Looking at Wang Chengen, who had not left, Zhu Youzhen asked.

Just as Wang Chengen knows him, Zhu Youzhen also knows Wang Chengen's companion very well.

Seeing that the emperor asked himself, Wang Chengen was not hiding it, and was busy saying the doubts in his heart.

Because this time the emperor's edict named Shi Kefa to take command, and the emperor also had strict requirements for the army going north, and the four southern towns and Zuo Liangyu's soldiers and horses could not be wanted, which made Wang Chengen puzzled.

Looking at it, there are few decent military groups in the Ming Dynasty today, Zuo Liangyu in Huguang and the four towns in Yangzhou are among the best military groups in the Ming Dynasty, and there are at least hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses under their hands.

Zhu Youzhen smiled and waved his hand, "Big companion, you only know one thing, you don't know the other, although these people seem to be strong and strong, but they are useless, and their combat effectiveness can be said to be equal to zero, and more importantly, this group of people must have different hearts, and they are the most disloyal to the court." ”

Wang Chengen's mouth opened wide, he had followed the emperor for decades, but he suddenly felt that this year's emperor was more transparent than the previous ten years, and he could see things to such a point.

"The old slave is stupid, and the emperor is sage."

"Okay, big companion, I have to leave the capital for a while, and you have to assist the prince to guard the capital division these days, presumably Li Zicheng will not come to fight the idea of the capital division again."

"What? Emperor? Are you leaving? Hearing the news, Wang Chengen opened his mouth wide, although the Liukou has been eliminated now, there are too many things in the capital, and many things need the emperor to make an idea, and the emperor leaves at this time, which is nothing more than a bolt from the blue for him.

"Well, I want to personally lead a cavalry deep into Mobei."

"Your Majesty, no." As soon as he heard that the emperor was going to take danger alone, Wang Chengen immediately stopped him, in his opinion, the emperor was the Ninety-Five Supreme, and he couldn't take the risk himself.

Wang Chengen wanted to say something more, but Zhu Youzhen directly stopped him, which Zhu Youzhen had already planned. The reason why Zhao Yun was sent to sit in Shanhaiguan was also for this purpose.

Now that the inner invaders have been pacified, only external enemies remain, and the Tartars are different from ordinary people, they are the mortal enemies of the Ming Dynasty, so they must be eliminated.

"You go out first, I want to be alone for a while."

Xifengkou, at this time, the city wall was already full of people, Zhu Youzhen appeared here with Yanyun's eighteen horsemen, and there were 50,000 Guanning iron horsemen who arrived with them.

If it weren't for the fact that Jingshi had already sent a disc, Zhou Liang, the guard of Xifengkou, would have thought it was a Tatar invasion.

However, although he got the news, Zhou Liang was still surprised when he saw so many cavalry, he had been stationed here for more than ten years, and he couldn't remember how many years ago he had seen such a scene.

Neat military uniforms, fierce cavalry, seeing this scene, Zhou Liang was in tears, here he has witnessed countless Tartars breaking through, he didn't expect to see such a spectacular scene in his lifetime.

Not only Zhou Liang is satisfied, but Zhu Youzhen is even more satisfied, you must know that these 50,000 people spent Zhu Youzhen five million taels of silver to buy out.

The reason why Zhu Youzhen bought out so many Guanning Iron Cavalry was to launch a big war in Mongolia.

Although the Manchu soldiers were strong, they were affected by the population of the entire nation, and when the Manchu Eight Banners were at their strongest, their military strength did not exceed 300,000.

And the reason why the Manchu Qing Dynasty was able to organize a huge army every time they attacked was completely because of the blessing of the Eight Banners of the Han Army and the Eight Banners of Mongolia.

Especially the Mongolian Eight Banners, since Huang Taiji's conquest of Mongolia, the Mongols have become the most favorable support of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and every time the major tribes call on hundreds of thousands of followers to send troops.

It can be said that these Mongols committed no less crimes in the Central Plains than the Manchurian Tatars, and among the soldiers and horses besieging Shanhaiguan this time were the Mongol Eight Banners.

Zhu Youzhen hoped that by attacking the Mongols, on the one hand, they would clearly understand the strength of the Ming Dynasty and weigh the consequences of cooperating with the Manchus in the future, and on the other hand, the most direct reason would be to solve the siege of Shanhaiguan.
