Jiang Quanyi and Wang Yilin led 10,000 sailors and soldiers to break through all the way and kill the generals, rampage like tigers in the mountains.

Along the way, it was more like locusts crossing the border, and it was a wolf.

Whether it is a rich family or an ordinary person, once it is encountered, it will be looted.

If scolding can scold people to death, then I am afraid that this army has already been wiped out.

Jiang Quanyi was different from Wang Yilin, but he acquiesced.

He didn't want silver, he wanted food.

There is no supply, so you can only eat on the spot, otherwise, this army would have collapsed long ago after repeated siege battles in the past few days.

Fortunately, there are small cities along the way, and there are not many defenders, so in the face of such a behemoth, it is brave to be able not to escape.

But Rao is like this, when the sailor arrived in Rugao, there were only more than 6,000 people left.

This level of casualties made Jiang Quanyi's heart ache.

In order to march quickly, Jiang Quanyi ordered everyone to discard everything except food on their bodies to ensure the speed of the march.

During the looting along the way, there were a lot of goods in the hands of the soldiers, especially Wang Yilin, who already had dozens of truckloads of goods by his side.

Wang Yilin disagreed, but he had almost lost control of the army.

Facing Jiang Quanyi's gloomy face, Wang Yilin once again chose to compromise.

However, he suggested that instead of discarding it, it would be better to bury it in situ.

Jiang Quanyi agreed.

So, at the foot of an unknown hill, he found a cave that he had in itself, moved all his belongings into it, and finally smashed down the rock wall and sealed the entrance to the cave.

Wang Yilin said bitterly, "If this is seen by any ancestral tomb with light smoke, I am afraid that it will take a few lifetimes, no, dozens of hundreds of lifetimes to use up." Brother Jiang, you have done a great sin. ”

Jiang Quanyi ignored Wang Yilin, turned around and gave the order, the whole army turned to the southeast and marched, and from now on, the county seat was bypassed.

……。

The Qing court was shaken.

The "lethality" of this Ming army is too great.

The target of the Qing court's "Huairou" is the Yixing Dynasty, but the problem is that the Yixing Dynasty spread his hands and said, we have already declared that this is a rebel army, their lives and actions have nothing to do with our dynasty, you love to fight and kill, don't pay attention to our feelings.

The Yixing Dynasty doesn't care, but the Qing court has to take care of it, the dead and the injured are robbed, and it's all their own territory.

As a result, there were some calls for "surrender" in the court.

This is not surprising, this time is different from the past, before entering the customs, the Qing army beat the grass valley, after raiding and looting, you can pat your ass and leave, who cares about the huge waves behind you?

Now, after three years of sitting in the world, the way of thinking about problems has changed.

The ass determines the position, and it is the same in any dynasty.

The Qing court went from being barefoot to wearing shoes.

Naturally, I began to think about settling down.

But this "rebel army" is barefoot.

They have nothing to scruple about except a rotten life.

It's hard to imagine that people who don't even want their lives will care about other things.

Therefore, the voice of surrender is getting louder and louder, aren't they barefoot, just put shoes on them, so that they have scruples.

Zhao'an has always used this principle.

The interests involved in this are not trivial.

But this voice was suppressed by Dolgon and Hong Chengchou.

It's not that these two old enemies began to shake hands and make peace, but for this matter, the demands of the two are the same, they just joined hands in this matter.

It's simple.

The north and south periphery of the Yangtze River have been changing hands repeatedly in recent years, and the Qing court has not been able to collect taxes.

The line from Fengyang to Huai'an, the land of several prefectures, bears the main source of taxes for the Qing court in the southeast corner.

But now that it has been swept away by this "rebel army", it is not too much to say that everyone in the surrounding provinces and counties is in danger.

Many merchant ships no longer dare to go north, but choose Hangzhou and Songjiang for transshipment.

And the people, whether they are rich businessmen or ordinary people, are all complaining.

There is a lot at stake behind this kind of public opinion.

At this time, the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs, but more than a million people, ruling the huge Central Plains, and had to rely on the Han people.

Among the Qing army, the Han Banner and the Qingming Army combined, accounting for six or seven percent.

The efforts of this "rebel army" in the past ten days caused the Qing court to suffer losses of personnel and property that were far greater than those in the first battle of Yizhen.

The most important thing is that a large part of this "rebel army" followed Wu Zheng's Northern Expedition, and they developed a habit of killing Tartars when they saw them, which was not good, really bad, and especially gave the Qing court a headache.

If this "rebel army" is really recruited, then the problem will be very serious, just imagine that those Ming troops who surrendered to the Qing Dynasty will also come to this hand, then the world will not be chaotic? and the hearts of men will be scattered.

As soon as the people's hearts are scattered, the team will not be easy to lead.

On this point, Dolgon and Hong Chengchou are of the same opinion.

As a result, a Manchu regent and a leader who descended to the Ming Dynasty reached a tacit understanding, and after suppressing this call for peace, the imperial court issued an order to order Prince Zheng Jierharang to annihilate the "rebel army" within a time limit and return to Beijing within five days to report on his work.

The decree is simple and clear, that is, from the moment Zilharan receives the decree to the moment he stands in the temple of Mukden to perform the report, he will give you five days.

You still have to achieve the word "total annihilation", and no one is missing.

……。

Zilharang was under pressure.

The pressure is high.

This is not to say that Zilharang is incompetent and inadequate.

On the contrary, Prince Zheng of Heshuo in Zilharang was fought with a knife and a gun.

He is the nephew of the Qing Taizu Nurhachi, and the true Aixin Jueluo Jinzhi.

But there are many people with the surname Aixin Jueluo, and I haven't seen a few people like Jierharang who have become Prince Heshuo Zheng and auxiliary ministers.

As a young man, Zilharang was second to none in his battles against the Ming Dynasty, the Mongols, Korea, and even the rebel tribes within the Manchus.

Therefore, he did not think that it would be difficult to annihilate this rebel army.

The difficulty is that this rebel army is nowhere to be found.

That's the hardest part of the puzzle.

Regardless of ancient or modern, when the two armies are at war, the focus is on knowing oneself and knowing the other.

First of all, we must know the temperament characteristics of the opposing coach and the way he reacts when encountering problems.

But the commander of this rebel army is just a deputy commander, from the fifth rank, or an emerging star, who knows where he came from?

Nothing.

Secondly, it is necessary to know the purpose and direction of the march of this rebel army.

But this rebel army moved from north to south, east to west, sometimes as fast as a rabbit, and sometimes turned back to pursue the Qing army, a horse pistol, and a small ambush.

This made the pursuit of the Qing army miserable.

In the end, the imperial court has to mobilize the army, right?

The so-called ten are encircled, five are attacked, and the rebels are fleeing vigorously, with no intention of occupying a city and holding on, such an army is a headache.

This is like chasing a fugitive, you have to know his temperament, hobbies, reactions, relatives and friends, where he is most likely to go, and where he will settle down.

None of this is known to Zilharang.
