Cheng Tingjun made a decision that shocked everyone, abandon the pass and run away!

If he wants to stick to it, it doesn't mean that he can't keep it, but there is a greater risk.

And now he has made a decision that will not be risky.

Of course, the price is to give up the gong pass.

As for how to explain to Lord Fuzun when he returned to Chongqing City, he had already thought about it.

It's nothing more than that he held on to the pass, but the thieves had many tricks and tricks to surround the two ways, and he desperately fought a bloody way.

In short, in Cheng Tingjun's opinion, Tongluo Pass is not worth burying with him, and even Chongqing City is not worth it.

If necessary, he could even abandon the high governor. Of course, he didn't want to see that day coming.

…

…

After learning that Cheng Tingjun abandoned the pass and fled through the small road, Li Dingguo immediately sent people to chase and kill, but because the troops were too small and the enemy ran too scattered, he did not capture Cheng Tingjun alive.

But it's nothing compared to a majestic pass.

Li Dingguo opened the door as soon as possible to welcome the Son of Heaven in.

Zhu Youlang was a little surprised when he saw the door open.

At first, he thought it was the Qing army's fraud, but after seeing the Ming Dragon Banner fluttering at the head of the city, he sighed that Li Dingguo deserved to be the nemesis of the Manchu Dynasty. I'm afraid that these Manchu generals will send chills down their spines when they mention Li Dingguo's name, right?

Of course, if you want to enter the water pass, you have to break the iron cables and flying bridge arrays laid by the Qing army.

However, without the interference of enemy artillery fire and arrows, it was only a matter of time before this was done.

Soon, the Ming army broke through the entire blockade and successfully entered the Causeway Pass.

Zhu Youlang was full of emotion when he saw Li Dingguo, who was covered in blood, and personally removed his heavy armor for him.

"King Jin has worked hard! Why is the world uneasy? ”

Li Dingguo was naturally moved to tears.

"Your Majesty treats the ministers like this, how can the ministers repay him."

After sighing, the two began to discuss the next step.

After the Tongluo Pass was taken, Chongqing City was like a shy little daughter-in-law, waiting for the arrival of the Ming army at any time.

It's nothing more than a question of when to fight and how.

Tongluo Pass is only more than 20 miles away from Chongqing City, and it can be reached by waterway.

In Li Dingguo's view, there was no need to attack Chongqing in such a hurry, rest overnight and start again the next morning, and also give the soldiers some time to rest.

Zhu Youlang felt that it was right, and it was not bad for such a day, there was no reason to make the army so tired.

He immediately ordered the army to rest at Tongluo Pass for the whole night, and the soldiers rejoiced and shouted for the Son of Heaven.

…

…

However, it was said that the next morning, as soon as it was dawn, the Ming army set off towards Chongqing City.

Of course, Zhu Youlang left 5,000 people to guard the pass as a way out.

If you are unfortunately defeated and retreat by land and water, the Causeway Pass must be in your hands.

The river from Tongluo Pass to Chongqing City gradually flattened, and turbulent water was rarely seen.

The Ming army's sailors were lined up, quite a bit of the momentum of covering the river.

The confidence in Zhu Youlang's heart has increased a little more.

Fighting a war is about momentum.

Now that the Ming army is in full swing, there is no reason to lose.

I don't know if Wen Anzhi's secret pile in Chongqing knew the news that the Ming army had captured Tongluo Pass.

It's time to get started, right?

Compared with attacking Zhu Youlang, he is more inclined to outwit him.

First, his guns and ammunition are limited, so he can save some.

Second, after all, this is a fresh life, and it is naturally best to seize Chongqing with the least loss.

Zhu Youlang felt that at this moment he had completely integrated into this era and adapted to the role of the emperor.

The more important the identity, the greater the responsibility.

Zhu Youlang felt that he was walking on the edge of the cliff, next to the abyss, and he couldn't make a mistake!

…

…

In Chongqing City, Wang Henian was very excited when he learned that the Ming army had captured Tongluo Pass.

He has endured humiliation and burdens in Chongqing for so many years, is he finally going to play a role?

The ugly braid made him miserable every day when he woke up and freshened up to look in the mirror. But when he thought that this was for the sake of the court and the Ming Dynasty, he could only grit his teeth and insist.

Now he's finally waiting for his chance...

Through observation, he found that the price of grain in Chongqing had risen to the point of three taels of silver per bucket. It's crazy.

The people's will is on the verge of collapse, as long as one more fire is lit...

"It's time for me to contribute to Daming."

Wang Henian took a deep breath and said secretly.

…

…

Wang's grain shop.

Wang Henian sat on the chair and said to himself: "Just collect as much grain as there is on the market, don't care what the price is. ”

The Wang family has also accumulated a lot of wealth over the years, and even if the price of grain is ridiculously expensive now, they can still receive some.

It's just that the old shopkeeper can't understand why the eldest prince would rush to collect grain at this juncture.

A month ago, the eldest prince could still earn a lot of money by collecting grain, but now that the price of grain is so high, there is no profit margin for collecting it.

Could it be that the eldest prince has inside information, and food prices will continue to rise?

"The eldest son, there is something that the old man does not know whether to talk about or not."

"But it doesn't hurt to say it."

"Is this what Fuzun means?"

The relationship between the old Wang family and Governor Gao is very good, and the old shopkeeper guesses that this is the meaning of the governor.

Who knew that Wang Henian shook his head and said, "That's not it, that's what I meant." Any questions? ”

Now the old shopkeeper was puzzled.

There is no official meaning, what kind of trouble is this young master.

Even that's a bit too high, isn't it?

Eat so much food at such a high price, if you can't sell it, you will all be smashed in your hands.

This... Isn't this a loser?

But if you think about it carefully, the eldest son's loser is also a loser, and his old Wang family is also defeated, what does it have to do with him?

He's just taking people's money to do things for others, and what he needs to say is in place.

There is no point or need to argue with the owner's intentions.

"Don't dare."

"That's good, if my father blames me, I'll be the one to bear."

Wang Henian swore solemnly.

…

…

"Get out, get out of here."

When Gao Minzhan saw Cheng Tingjun, he felt angry.

The Causeway Pass was lost so inexplicably, and the Ming army was like a bamboo. What will Chongqing City take?

"Calm your anger. It's not that the officials are incompetent, but that the thieves are too cunning. ”

Cheng Tingjun was in a cold sweat when he saw Gao Minzhan being furious, and defended again and again: "The Ming army is attacking from two sides, and although the last general is desperately resisting, he is still invincible with two fists and four hands. If the fight continues, it is likely that the whole army will be wiped out. The last general felt that he could still make some contributions to Fuzun, so he led his troops to break through desperately, and finally fought a bloody way! ”

Cheng Tingjun burst into tears when he said it, he obviously took the initiative to run away, but he was said to be loyal and unparalleled, which simply gave Gao Min goosebumps all over his body.

"Hmph, if it's like you said, why don't you have any big losses under your command?"

Gao Minzhan reprimanded: "Ben Fu sees that you are clearly quibbling!" ”
