"Drive, drive!"

In the early morning, the smoke and dust in the south of Pinggu City rolled, the earth roared, and the three fine horses were like three torrents, quickly sweeping towards the direction of Jingshi.

"Brother, keep in touch at any time, and if you have any difficulties, you must inform your brother as soon as possible!"

Wang Tingchen, who was appointed as the vanguard of the Right Route Army, hugged Xu Changqing hard and pulled up the veil mask between his mouth and nose.

Xu Changqing also clenched his fists hard: "Brother Wang, keep in touch at any time, everything is still based on safety, don't underestimate the enemy!" ”

"Hehe, brother knows, take care, we'll see you later! Boys, walk! ”

"Drive, drive~~"

Seeing that Wang Tingchen and his own soldiers quickly chased their main force like tigers and wolves, Xu Changqing also breathed a sigh of relief, and turned to look at Hong Chengchou and the others at the head of Pinggu City.

Hong Chengchou was also looking at Xu Changqing and waved his hand vigorously.

Xu Changqing hugged Hong Chengchou deeply and waved his hand to the soldiers around him: "Let's go!" ”

"The commander has an order, the whole army is leaving!"

"The commander has an order, and the whole army sets off ......"

As the generals at all levels quickly conveyed the order, the 6,000 elites of the Model Army, together with more than 3,000 auxiliary soldiers, pushed nearly 1,000 mules and horses, and began to rush to the direction of the Beijing Division in a steady and orderly manner.

And the hundreds of people cruising around the team did not collect at night, and they were like birds, quickly scattering to the main force in all directions.

After all, it is the top spot of the 'knowing soldiers' of the Ming Dynasty at this time, and Hong Chengchou has no problems in the strategic and tactical arrangement.

At this time, the three cavalry vanguards of the main force of the Ming army, Wang Tingchen led his main force to arrange the right road, Zu Dabi and their Jinzhou soldiers arranged the left road, and the middle road was more than 2,000 elite cavalry of Hong Chengchou's personal army supervision battalion.

The leader of this group of superintendent battalions is a deputy general from the Qin army, surnamed Zhou, with a very calm temperament and a very low-key personality, Xu Changqing has only met him twice when he was in Liaodong before, but he has never said a word, so the maximum way to greet people is to smile.

Even if Xu Changqing was in full swing at that time, he didn't come up to make friends like everyone else.

This also gave Xu Changqing a deeper understanding of Hong Chengchou's foundation.

Whoever doesn't treat him as a number one person will have to pay a big price sooner or later!

There were three guards of nearly 7,000 elite cavalry in front, and the minds of many sons and daughters of the model army were also soothed a lot, and their steps were fast.

Including Xu Changqing, Wu Sanmei and the Red Lady, they all relied on the '11' road and did not ride horses.

It's a shame to say.

Xu Changqing can be regarded as having a lot of net worth at this time, but it is still too difficult to buy a horse, and you have nothing to do with this thing, and you can't buy it with money.

Although Xu Changqing has a good friendship with Wang Pu, but those Mongolian Tatars are darker than the other, and Wang Pu has no choice but to work with Xu Changqing for a long time, making a dozen or twenty horses a month, so as to accumulate slowly.

This made Zhang Hu's more than 1,000 cavalry, Xu Changqing stayed in the seaside camp north of Beitang, and he was reluctant to release it, he really couldn't withstand this kind of attrition, and it was already the limit if he didn't collect it at night.

The weather is nice today and the sun is soft.

In one morning, Xu Changqing and the model soldiers had already traveled more than 30 miles, resting temporarily by a small river at the junction of Pinggu and Sanhe, burying pots and cooking rice.

These adjustments over time, Xu Changqing actually doesn't like marching during the day, on the one hand, he has to face a big sun, on the other hand, he is more core, and he really doesn't have much sense of security.

At this time, with the support of the royal courtiers in front, Xu Changqing could barely be trusted, otherwise, Xu Changqing would never be so aggressive.

There's no way around it.

Cavalry fighting infantry is really like Lao Tzu beating his son.

Even if it is the training level of the model army, it is impossible to maintain the most stable battle formation sequence at full speed at this time, and there must be time to adjust.

"Newspaper - the latest news on the left!"

"Report - Mid Road Battle Report!"

During the meal, the news from all sides in front was quickly summarized, and there was no major problem for the time being, only some Tartar rangers were found, and the main force of the Qing army was not found.

After examining the battle report, Xu Changqing also relaxed a little, and rubbed Wu Sanmei's little head with a smile: "I didn't let you meet your second brother, are you wronged?" ”

Wu Sanmei was eating a piece of air-dried beef, and her mouth was full of oil, which was carefully prepared by the firefighters in Pinggu City before.

In fact, Xu Changqing didn't plan to swallow the harvest of Pinggu City from the beginning, because he couldn't eat it at all.

As the saying goes, 'people's hearts are not enough to swallow elephants', without such a big appetite, Xu Changqing will definitely not make trouble for himself.

Of course, Xu Changqing has all over many of the precious strategic materials, such as these beef.

Air-dried beef is not very easy to bite, especially in this semi-air-dried state, Wu Sanmei is eating beautifully, her posture is a little unbeautiful, when she heard Xu Changqing's words, her pretty face couldn't help but blush: "Brother, you hate it so much~~." ”

Xu Changqing smiled 'haha', took her into his arms hard, and whispered softly to her ear: "Third sister, it's hard work." ”

How could Wu Sanmei not understand what Xu Changqing meant? Carefully tore off a piece of beef, stuffed it into Xu Changqing's mouth, and said with some emotion: "Brother, I'm fine, I can still hold it." ”

Xu Changqing couldn't help but hug Wu Sanmei tighter, and regardless of the oil stains on her mouth, he kissed her fiercely: "Third sister, you must tell my brother if you feel unwell, do you know?" ”

"Hmm!"

After a brief lunch with Wu Sanmei, Xu Changqing began to inspect the camp, and after everyone rested for almost a quarter of an hour, the team continued to move forward.

In fact, if there is a choice, Xu Changqing would like to meet Wu Sangui, including the second grandfather Zu Dale, but in the current state, time is really urgent.

If it is not possible to lay roots and establish support points in the vicinity of Tongzhou and even Jingshi in the shortest possible time, it is impossible for the Ming army to have the initiative in this battle of King Qin!

Wu Sangui and Second Master Zu are both generals, so they naturally understand this, and this is actually Xu Changqing's sincerity to these two masters.

Perhaps because the Qing army was shrinking around Tongzhou, the journey was quite smooth.

In the evening, Xu Changqing and the main force of the model army had rushed to a hillside near the river at the junction of Tongzhou and Sanhe to rest.

Wang Tingchen's camp was three or four miles west of this place, while Qin Jun and Zu Dabi were ten or twenty miles to the south, echoing from end to end, and could rescue at any time.

As soon as the model army set up camp, Wang Tingchen rushed over, and brought a roasted little fat sheep by the way.

But in this state, Wang Tingchen didn't dare to hold it up, he definitely didn't dare to drink too much wine, and what was in front of him and Xu Changqing was a small pot of wine for one person.

"Changqing, the situation is a little not optimistic. The tartar was too cautious and didn't move all the time. I don't know what kind of bad fart the dog is holding back. ”

Wang Tingchen took a sip of wine, and his face was a little solemn.

The camping site chosen by Xu Changqing and the model army at this time made Wang Tingchen feel very good, and he had already won Xu Changqing's trust, at least partially.

But the dense Qing army cavalry strongholds not far away are really unpleasant.

If it was on the familiar terrain of Liaodong, these Qing army rangers dared to play like this, and Wang Tingchen would have asked them to do it a long time ago, but at this time, although this is the land of the Ming Dynasty, they are outsiders, and Wang Tingchen does not dare to be rash.

Xu Changqing nodded.

I have already adapted to this, and where I am not as good as people, I have to admit that there is no need to slap a swollen face and become fat.

Not to mention these elite horsemen of Wang Tingchen at this time, even if it is Wu Sangui's 'Yiding Sudden Cavalry', if you want to do it with these Qing army rangers in this state, you will definitely not be able to get half a point!

People eat this bowl of rice from their mother's womb.

"Brother Wang, how is the situation in Tongzhou? Is there any specific information? ”

Xu Changqing looked into Wang Tingchen's eyes.

Wang Tingchen took a big bite of mutton, spread out the map, and pointed to Xu Changqing and explained in detail: "About twenty-one and twelve miles in front of us, there is a Zhuangzi called Majiazhuang, which has a lot of Tartars and at least one or two thousand Han slaves, but the specific manpower is not clear. Fourteen or fifteen miles southwest of Majiazhuang, the situation of Liujiazhuang has been ascertained, there are more than three Niu Lu, which are the elite of the yellow flag, and the Kongjiazhuang here......"

Wang Tingchen introduced six or seven Zhuangzi to Xu Changqing one after another, and they were all carefully marked.

These Zhuangzi are not ordinary rural areas, but the industry of the magnates in Beijing, covering a huge area, and the Qing army has repeatedly entered the customs over the years, and the repair of the Zhuangzi defense by these magnates is also good, like a big stronghold, firmly stuck on the road of the main force of the Ming army.

Just such a rough calculation, this area, there are four or five thousand, or even six or seven thousand Tartars.

Xu Changqing frowned tightly, silent, and did not make a statement in a hurry.

Wang Tingchen sighed and said, "Brother, what do you think? Is it the fucking one vote first, or wait for the main force? ”

Xu Changqing groaned: "Brother Wang, I'm afraid this ticket is not easy to do!" No surprise, either tonight or tomorrow morning, the Qing army will definitely take the initiative! ”

"This ......"

Wang Tingchen suddenly became clever, "Our main force is behind, Tang Tong has already sent troops, and Wang Pu is almost here, do the Tartars still dare to fight us here?" ”

Xu Changqing said: "Brother Wang, you must strengthen your defense tonight, don't be rash." Wait until we get through tonight, and tomorrow morning we will see the situation clearly before making a decision! ”

"Good!"

Wang Tingchen soon left, and the model army also moved quickly and began to dig and build fortifications.

It's not that Xu Changqing is timid and doesn't want to take the initiative to attack, but the situation in front of him is really a little weird!

Xu Changqing didn't expect that Dolgon would arrange such a large number of people in these villages in the suburbs of Tongzhou, after all, this place is about to become a war zone, and if there is a slight difference, these population materials will definitely not be able to be saved.

But that's how he arranged it, and his intention was already clear!

……

As expected, just after the ugly time, there was a fierce shouting of killing in the south direction, and the fire quickly rose into the sky.

Not long after, Xu Changqing's side received a battle report, and a Tartar came to steal the battalion of the standard battalion.

Soon, Zu Dabi also sent a battle report, and their camp was also attacked, but it was not too serious.

Xu Changqing and Wang Tingchen are also ready to meet the changes here.

But unexpectedly, until dawn, there was no Tartar sneak attack on the two sides.

But tonight, basically no one slept well.

Early in the morning, Zu Dabi and Vice General Zhou were the main forces leading them, and they quickly gathered towards Xu Changqing and Wang Tingchen.

"Fuck it, the dog Tartar is in the dark!"

Zu Dabi's sexy beard was scorched a lot, and he spat hard when he saw Xu Changqing and Wang Tingchen.

Vice General Zhou's face was not good-looking, a little pale, and he said in a deep voice: "The Tartars are vicious and ruthless, I'm afraid we will have to wait until the main force comes over to make a decision!" ”

"Woo~~Woo~~"

However, before Vice General Zhou's words fell, a piercing horn suddenly sounded around him.

In the blink of an eye, everyone saw that countless flags were flying on all sides, and at least tens of thousands of Tartars had surrounded everyone!

Among them, the north side is the first pole of the big flag, which is the king flag of Dolgon's white flag!
