At noon, the scorching sun scorched the earth, the townsmen patrolling the city of Qingzhou were sweating, and the north gate of the upper city tower Li Jia Waixiong and Lao Jiu Song Luoshu were drinking wildly around a bucket, perhaps because the weather was too hot or maybe it was the uneasy mood to watch the battle outside the city just now.

Early in the morning, the Qing army's camp moved, and the troops were transferred to the Beiyang River in the west to assemble, and Jia Waixiong and the others felt that something was wrong.

King Heng heard the news again and went to the city to watch the battle, his face was still pale, his legs were still weak, and he was excited and terrified to see such a large-scale fight for the first time in decades.

Although the distance is a little farther, it is impossible to see the cruelty of the soldiers of the two armies, but tens of thousands of people are fighting, both in scale and momentum, it is an unprecedented visual impact.

More than ten miles away, the two armies of Beiyang River fought fiercely, the sound of killing shook the sky, and the cannon roared, and thousands of people in Qingzhou City watched the battle silently.

It wasn't until near noon that the Qing army withdrew from the Western Front and returned from the city and countryside to whisper endlessly, and Zhu Youdi kept asking Jia Waixiong: "Who won?" ”

Jia Waixiong shook his head, he couldn't see clearly from Taiyuan, and he couldn't understand it, if the Qing army won, it would definitely take advantage of the victory to pursue, if it was defeated, it would not come back so calmly and calmly, and the Ming army had already chased after him, could it be a draw?

A big battle that I don't know whether to win or lose gave the people in the city a real battlefield battle, and also sounded the alarm for them that the general attack of the Qing army was coming.

Zhu Youdi's face changed from pale to iron blue and then to disgrace, and he went down to the city without saying a word, and Jia Waixiong and the others also stayed in the enemy building for a long time without saying a word, only caring about irrigation, and even the palace housekeeper didn't have any appetite when he brought the food.

Is it too hot or too cold?

"The day before yesterday, the Tartars attacked the city and did a battle with the reinforcements today, but in fact, it is to touch the bottom of the city defense and reinforcements, if it is not bad, Ming'er should do it, eat the appetizers, and serve the hard dishes" Song Luoshu usually said very little, staring at the Qing army camp outside and saying with an expressionless face.

Lao Jiu pursed his lips and wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything, but Jia Waixiong smiled slightly bitterly: "What should come will always come, come early and get rid early, it's too tiring for them to worry about gains and losses every day."

"Oh, I'll go, Boss Jia is now speaking more and more levelly, and he still suffers from gains and losses, what's wet, do you want Wang Erhua to think......" Lao Jiu screamed, everyone laughed, and the sluggish atmosphere suddenly dissipated.

In the camp of the Qing army in the north of the city, the generals in Dolgon's tent sat on both sides and whispered, raising troops early in the morning to fight with the Ming army, and when they saw that they were about to defeat the enemy, they were defeated by the Ming army.

But the generals didn't have any pressure, but they were relatively relaxed, and even Dolgon was calm: "The Ming army is now an empty shelf!" ”

"It's a long journey from the capital to here, and the long-distance battle is normal for our Qing Dynasty iron cavalry, but the dogs can't bear it, and it seems that they are just strong and weak in the outside," Duoduo smiled, and everyone agreed.

In the first battle just now, they have tried out the depth of the Ming army, although there are more than 30,000 troops, but the combat strength is mediocre, if it is not for the artillery support, the Qing army only needs 10,000 to crush!

Therefore, everyone has made a decision, with 10,000 troops to hold the Beiyang River, they will be able to stop the enemy, and the rest will be put into the siege.

"Half a day, this king wants to break the city in half a day!" Dorgon roars! He then ordered his troops to prepare for the siege.

At the same time, in a small village at the foot of Mingzu Mountain, more than ten miles west of the Beiyang River, Li Yan, Zhou Yuji, Huang Degong and other generals also sat together to discuss the previous battle.

If the whole army attacks with the blessing of the Shenji Battalion, the Qing army will not be able to hold the Beiyang River front without 20,000 troops!

Obviously, the Ming army just released the water, to be exact, to show weakness! The purpose is very simple, to paralyze the Qing army.

Because Li Yan has seen through the Qing army's launch of this wave of attacks in order to find out the bottom, and then deploy troops according to the combat effectiveness of the Ming army, how to resist reinforcements while attacking the city, it is obvious that Li Yan's forces are eyeing the city with all their might.

"In General Lee's opinion, when will the Tartars attack the city?" Huang Degong asked.

Li Yan was silent for a while: "The Tartars sent troops to attack early this morning, which means that the preparations are almost complete, and they will start tomorrow if they are not bad" said and looked at Ji Jike: "What do you think of Brother Ji?" ”

Ji Ji is the lowest-ranking here, to be precise, he doesn't even have a formal military position, but his courage and strength are not inferior to Tu Yuanhao's banner and strategy, which is even appreciated by Li Yan, so he has this question.

"I think maybe tonight the Tartars will do it! What does the chief soldier think? Ji Ji Ke said and glanced at Zhou Yuji, this is a subconscious action, although they are all under Chang Yu's orders at this time, but these tens of thousands of soldiers and horses and more than ten generals of all sizes also have their own mountains, he is Zhou Yuji's lineage, and Zhou has the grace of knowing him, recently Li Yan always has the intention of wooing him, but he always thinks that Zhou Yuji is the first to look forward, which can be regarded as a statement of position to reassure Lao Zhou.

Zhou Yuji really felt relieved, when he recruited troops in Taiyuan to the east to suppress bandits, Ji Ji could sign up for the army, at that time, he just thought that he was a demobilized veteran and returned to the battlefield and did not pay much attention, who knew that when he was in Zhending Mansion, he was surrounded by thieves and Luo Hu and others and almost defeated the army, Ji Ji could go down like a general to pick Luo Hu with a shot and make the thief army shocked, and Zhou was able to retreat.

This battle Ji Ji can be a blockbuster, Zhou Yuji was about to reuse when he found that the little eunuch came to dig the corner, crying and laughing, but he was helpless, and then secretly happy, after all, Ji Ji can be regarded as his person who was going to be the little eunuch to owe him a personal favor, and secondly, the little eunuch has his own person by his side will make the relationship between the two more stable, and there are people in the court who are good officials.

After that, he and Li Yan and Huang Degong followed the little eunuch to fight against the Qing army, but they also cooperated very tacitly, although they all obviously felt that Chang Yu obviously reused Li Yan, but he was not much unhappy, after all, Li Yan was talented and obvious to all, and the two were also convinced, but along the way, he felt that Li Yan also began to want to dig into the corner of the wall, so he was a little unhappy.

It's just that I saw Ji Jike's attitude obviously saying, don't worry, brother, I am your person, and that unhappiness will disappear, although the three of them also have their own selfish intentions, but they have a common goal, to protect the family and defend the country, drive out the Tartars, and recover the Daming rivers and mountains!

It is because of this common goal and ambition that there are not so many dirty things between them.

"The Tartars may be preparing tonight but they may not be so eager to do it, and the so-called soldier speed is no longer meaningful to them at the moment, but a steady calculation." Zhou Yuji said in a deep voice, everyone nodded and thought it was, now that all the troops and horses are in place, the Qing army has also tried the strength of Qingzhou City Defense and Ming Army reinforcements, they don't need to be in a hurry for quick success, they should be prepared and then come to a heavy punch to break through Qingzhou City.

"No matter how stable the Tartars are, it will only be a matter of the day after tomorrow to attack Qingzhou City, and we should also be prepared to fight a hard battle" Li Yan swept the generals: "This time, as long as the Tartars are beaten, it can not only protect the safety of Qingzhou, but also make the Tartars retreat without time or courage to continue to plunder in the pass!" ”

"He's endured it for so long, chased so far away, this battle is going to be a battle with the dog Tartar, who is both life and death, and high and low, Lao Tzu wants to whip Dolgon's head to smash the head of the dog thief......" Huang Degong scolded and scolded, venting his resentment in his heart.

Zhou Yuji laughed and patted him on the shoulder: "Lao Huang is suffocating"!

"No, Lao Tzu wants to drink Tartar blood and eat Tartar meat to relieve the hatred in his heart......" Huang Degong scolded and even did not forget to ridicule himself: "In previous years, I was chased by the Tartars and the thief army, and I never thought that chasing the Tartars could also chase a belly of fire......"

Everyone laughed, and then Li Yan ordered all departments to prepare for mobilization, and as long as there was any movement in the Tartars on the side of Qingzhou City, they would immediately send troops.
