It was almost the third day after the news that Jiannu had broken the wall and entered the customs. On the banks of the Grand Canal in North Zhili, the city of Texas on the other side is black in the night.

On this side of the canal, there were people boiling everywhere, and more than 50,000 Qing troops claimed to be 100,000, and after they met in Tongzhou, they went south along the canal all the way to here, and there was almost no pause along the way.

Despite the bitter evening breeze in winter. But the cavalry of the brigade was still moving rapidly south. On the banks of the canal stood a heavy cavalry, about one or two hundred men. The leader is a burly general, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a bearded sideburns, he and the cavalry around him are wearing white helmets and white armor, which is the armor of the white flag, under the arch of the generals, the seemingly solemn and majestic Dolgon is just like this motionless on the horse, holding the reins in one hand, staring at the city of Texas on the opposite bank.

"Lord Wang, Xizuo has already heard the news, there are only more than 1,000 township soldiers in Dezhou City, plus the people are strong, and the Ning army is no more than 10,000 people, as long as the prince gives an order, the minions will definitely be able to take Dezhou!"

"Yes, Lord Wang, the prince led the minions into the customs, along the way, but it was very desolate, there was nothing to grab at all, these hundreds of miles, I couldn't even see a few figures, and if it went on like this, I was afraid that the grain and grass would be cut off!"

"Grab ......"

With a sneer, Dorgon said.

"We just went back at the beginning of the year, and when we entered the customs last year, everything that should be robbed was robbed, and what should be killed was almost killed, and now, even if we enter Texas City, what can we rob and rob?"

"Lord Shengming, this has just been robbed, you have to wait for others to recover some vitality before robbing it! I think this Texas city is laid, and it's not interesting! ”

"But no, maybe it cost the lives of the minions in vain!"

Although after Dolgon made his decision, there was a chorus around him, but in Dolgon's heart, he was a little unwilling, and the other side was Texas!

As long as you cross the canal and lay down Dezhou, you will enter Shandong, and then go south, which is Jinan!

Jinan!

That De Shizi is in Jinan!

Will he be like at the beginning of the year, attracting thunder?

Sky Thunder?

Naturally, Dorgon scoffed at this statement. He never believed that there was any heavenly thunder, and the so-called "heavenly thunder", in his opinion, was just an excuse for Du Du and others to shirk responsibility.

In this world, what kind of gods are there.

Without immortals, there can naturally be no "heavenly fire" or "heavenly thunder"!

"Lord, now Jinan is much more prosperous than in the past, there are not only hundreds of thousands of people inside and outside the city, but also prosperous commerce, if the prince leads the troops to capture Jinan, the income will definitely be no less than tens of millions of ......"

Fan San, who was riding on a horse, bowed his waist and said to Dolgon.

He is a house slave of the Fan family, and this time he followed Dolgon as a guide to lead the Qing soldiers south, in fact, there are many house slaves like him in the Fan family, there are dozens of people helping the Qing army lead the way, and there are more people to provide them with information.

"This king heard that Jinan has even built a circle of earth cities, and the current Jinan must have been prepared for a long time, this king is not Yue Tuo, and he has not stayed under Jinan City for two months!"

When Yue Tuo was mentioned, Dolgon's tone was full of sarcasm, dead people can't speak, even if Yue Tuo's troops besieged Jinan at the beginning, it was to grab more things, to encircle the point to send reinforcements, it was the emperor's plan, after all, Jinan was the largest and most prosperous city in the Ming Dynasty north of the Yellow River in addition to the capital, and only in that place could you grab more things.

However, now because of the defeat in Jinan, if someone must take responsibility, it must be borne by Yue Tuo, after all, dead people can't speak!

But every time they meet, even so, they are still cut a few Niu Lu, Dolgon is a little indignant, the soldiers were divided into two ways, and they did not govern each other, but even so, the emperor still cut his Niu Lu on the grounds of "unfavorable rescue", in the final analysis, he was just making excuses for cutting his military power.

Excuse!

For the emperor, all that is needed is an excuse!

Jinan...... The city of Jinan is well walled, and Yue Tuo suffered a loss there last time, so why should this king take risks there.

"But, but the prince, the emperor means ......"

As soon as he heard that the prince was unwilling to go to Jinan, Fan San suddenly became anxious, but the lord was waiting for the prince to take Jinan to avenge the second son!

"The emperor means that after killing the Yellow River, erosion of Nanzhili, so this king intends to take Nanzhili directly, for my Great Qing Kingdom, this is the most important thing, this king is going south this time, is to go south along the canal, not to give Ming Dog a chance to breathe!"

In fact, in Tongzhou has been agreed with Abatai, Yu Linqing divided the troops, he went south along the canal, and Abatai led the troops to Henan, waiting for the opportunity to cross the Yellow River, and then pointed directly at the capital, if the Ming army in the Zhongdu assembly army, it would be a false shot, kill to Huai'an after the two armies met, all the way to the captivity, straight to Nanjing.

Through last year's entry into the Ming Dynasty, Dolgon believed that the Ming army could not pose much threat to the army at all, not only because the Ming army had limited strength and took care of one or the other, but more importantly, like last year, the 50,000 troops led by him, except for the artillery team, were all cavalry, even if the red-coated cannons of the artillery team were also loaded on carts and pulled by horses.

Last year, when he entered the customs to conquer the Ming Dynasty, it was by virtue of the advantage of the cavalry that the Ming army was exhausted, and finally took care of one and the other.

"Herald army, rest here!"

Dolgon commanded on horseback, and he jumped off his horse with a swift leap, then tossed his whip to the minions beside him. He said as he walked.

"Send out rangers, thousands of people, and go forward for a hundred miles, but where there are villages and let them hand over grain and grass and thousands of stones, otherwise when the army arrives, there will be no grass. Grain and grass ...... Naturally, there will be Han people who will prepare food and grass for us along the way! ”

With an order, those Manmeng Eight Banners soldiers who were riding on horses all jumped off their horses, for the Eight Banners soldiers who galloped on horseback for a day, until this time, they were relieved, and they all took off their heavy armor and seized the time to feed the horses to rest.

After they all dismounted, occasionally they would look into the distance, and they could vaguely see some firelight, perhaps the lights of the Ming Dynasty's chasing soldiers, but they knew that those brave Ming troops were at most just a glance from a distance.

While the army was resting, Dolgon glanced in the direction of Jinan again, and muttered to himself silently in the bottom of his heart.

"This time, even if you have a thunderstorm in the sky, how can you get this king?"

This is perhaps the most paradoxical part of man. Even if you don't believe it, you still have some concerns in your heart.
