Seeing that he couldn't tie those three scourges to his belt, Chang Yu had no choice but to accept the reality, and the more cruel reality at the moment was how to drive Dolgon out.

According to the scouts, Dolgon led his troops to break through the siege and march south, and sent multiple units of scouts to intercept the scouts of the Ming army, clearly trying to get rid of the surveillance of the Ming army.

"Along the canal south, it is expected that it has reached Wuqing County, which is one step away from Tianjin, if our army does not rush to pursue, I am afraid that Tianjin will not escape the doom!" Zhou Yuji frowned and said solemnly.

Chang Yu pondered for a while, raised his head and swept everyone: "Let's just chase all the way, the more we chase south, when is it a head, the Tartar horse is fast and has no scruples, plundering all the way to self-sufficiency, we are tired of running around and lack of food and grass...... I'm afraid that in the end, it will be in vain! ”

Everyone was silent, and they were in trouble!

Unexpectedly, Li Yan suddenly struggled to get up: "Chasing, close to chasing, close to chasing!" ”

Chang Yu was stunned, and then nodded slightly, Dolgon's entry into the pass was mainly plundering, in previous years, the Ming army was scared to hide hundreds of miles away, and the Qing army was happy to rob while playing in the mountains and waters, herding horses, and going green, and now if the Ming army pursues at all costs, stalking him and grabbing a wool, if you don't go back early, you will not steal chickens and rice, of course, Li Yan's suggestion is to make the Ming army pay a very heavy price!

But it's better than letting the Qing army unscrupulously plague the territory of the Ming Dynasty, Chang Yu finally gritted his teeth and accepted Li Yan's suggestion, and after a little discussion with the generals, he took Huang Degong as the vanguard and led his soldiers and horses to go first, and the pro-guard army and the Beijing camp had Ji Jike, and Tu Yuan followed closely behind.

After all, only they had the most physical strength at this time, and Li Yanbu was almost defeated, and Teng Xiang's four guards and Jinwu four guards were also tired and had a lot of injuries in the previous battle, not to mention the descendants of Zhou Yuji and Chang Yu.

In the middle of the night, Huang Degong's battalion left, and at the same time sent more than ten scouts to reconnoitre, and sent several groups of men and horses from the west bypass to the front of the Qing army to warn Tianjin: The Tartar soldiers are coming, quickly dodge!

It was late at night, the candle flame was flickering, Chang Yu helped Li Yan personally check the wound and re-bandage it and chatted in the room, Li Muxian accompanied him, and Zhou Yuji went to the barracks outside the city.

Chen Suole knocked on the door and came in, and said in a low voice: "Factory father, Dongchang urgent!" As he spoke, he handed Chang Yu a letter.

I thought it was some important military situation, but when I opened it, it was two letters of invitation!

The letter of invitation was not written by the military generals under his command, but two civil officials who had never met, Wang Yongji, the governor of Jiliao, and Yang Yi, the governor of Shuntian!

Although they have never met, they have heard of it, and even knew these two people in their previous lives, Wang Yongji was a second minister who later surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, but he was an honest official, while Yang He was a loyal minister, and was killed by the local armed forces after recruiting troops to resist the Qing Dynasty.

Chang Yu is no longer the official who hated the Qing Dynasty without discrimination, in fact, although some people are hateful, they are not to the point of being killed, and some are not even hateful, at most they are morally condemned.

This Wang Yongji belongs to the kind of person who has no evil deeds and does not sin to death, but why did he suddenly join the army? If there is such courage, why should history be cleared?

Of course, Chang Yu knew that he was just to make meritorious service for his crimes, in order to protect him as the governor of Jiliao, as the governor of Jiliao, he actually let the Qing army enter the customs from the defense line under his jurisdiction unknowingly, and even if the political enemies did not impeach Emperor Chongzhen, he would have to be punished after the autumn.

If the Qing army is a little smaller, he can still guarantee his head, if it is big, he will die for a lifetime with the virtue of killing people without blinking an eye in the later period of Emperor Chongzhen!

So if Wang Yongji wants to save his life, he has to hug his thighs!

Who's hugging? At this moment, no one is more useful than hugging the little eunuch, not to mention the military merits, as long as the army can find an opportunity to offer a strategy, the little eunuch can save his head when he is happy, and even the black gauze hat is corrected.

As for Yang Que asking for battle, Chang Yu still couldn't think of a reason, Shuntianfu was close to the capital and was not broken by the Qing army, and Yang Que even had the merit of protecting the city, but I don't know why he insisted on running to the battlefield!

Maybe it's a bloody Ming courtier!

"Exactly! With the two of them accompanying the army, Chang Yu handed two more letters of invitation to Chen Sole: "Send them to Beijing to ...... to the emperor"

"The factory supervisor is slow" Li Muxian got up and stopped: "This is also the name of the two, it may be useful to keep it!" Chang Yu was stunned and didn't react, Li Muxian said again: "Although the factory doesn't like the intrigue of the court, but you can't be beaten and don't fight back, why not ......?"

"Is the Taoist going to let this governor form a party for personal gain? But I don't know that the emperor is the most taboo about this matter" Chang Yu raised his eyebrows and his tone was a little cold, Li Muxian hurriedly bowed down and confessed: "The poor road has exceeded the rules."

"Factory father, this matter is just for self-preservation, although Li Yan has never set foot in the court, he also knows that it is extremely dirty, the so-called defense is indispensable, we are bloody on the battlefield, but those people in the court still can't look down on our good, and always want to stumble...... It's always good to keep a spare hand, and no one can use it when you use people! Li Yan struggled to get up, he could see that although the little eunuch was scheming, he was still a rookie to the power struggle, and he was not the opponent of those old fritters in the court at all, and he had been evading, thinking that people would let him go.

Chang Yu fell silent, and after half a sound, he smiled slightly: "If it is just in case of emergency, it is better to give this letter to the emperor to have a look!" ”

This time it was Li Yan and Li Muxian's turn to be dumbfounded, but both of them were exquisite, and they figured out the joints in a blink of an eye, the little eunuch's move is called above board, and if you want to use these two people, you can use them in a dignified manner, in the emperor's opinion, he is also open and unabashed, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone, both the emperor's trust and two pen knives!

The east is bright, the rooster sings, and the water of the Yellow River rolls up in the sky......

Puzhou, known as Puban in ancient times, is said to be the capital of the Yaoshun period, which is close to the east bank of the Yellow River, and the famous ancient ferry Pujindu is a few miles away from the west of the city.

Although Jining is the new name of the ancient city in later generations, but it is not a place, Puzhou City is about 20 kilometers west of Jining City in later generations, its history is the most prosperous in the Tang and Ming dynasties, the Jin and Yuan wars were damaged greatly, the Ming Dynasty repaired more, an earthquake destroyed the city in one fell swoop during the Jiajing period, and the reconstruction has not been restored.

However, Puzhou is most famous for the pontoon bridge built in the Tang Dynasty, the pontoon bridge connects the two banks of the Yellow River, with the iron ox and iron man as the bridge pier, the pontoon bridge was destroyed at the end of the Yuan Dynasty and was not used for a long time, because the river changed to be buried in yellow sand, it is the Kaiyuan iron ox excavated after liberation.

Although the pontoon bridge was destroyed in the Ming Dynasty, the iron ox is still there, here is also one of the largest ferries of the Yellow River, a few days ago Li Zicheng led his troops to cross the river from here and fled to Xi'an, and the Ming army fought at the ferry, there are still traces of the great war around the ferry, the grass is full of corpses, and the arrows on the trees are shocking.

The ferry has been under martial law, several Ming troops with knives in the surrounding miles of guard, the Yellow River is rolling away, hundreds of meters away on the east bank is Puzhou City, because the thief army is anxious to flee for their lives, did not destroy the city and escaped a catastrophe and the opposite bank is one of the four famous buildings of the stork tower, but at this time the dilapidated and old dragon bell has no momentum.

As a battleground for soldiers, the common people of Puzhou City can be said to be fearful and miserable during the war, sending away the plague god and ushering in the ruffians, and the thieves are like locusts crossing the border, and the people inside and outside the city are almost clean, and the front foot has just left, and the officers and soldiers are here again.

At this time, the officers and soldiers were not soldiers, and they said that he was bad, and that he was a soldier of the imperial court, and that he was worse than the thieves!

Gao Jie, Liu Zeqing, and Hua Ma Liu spared no effort to chase and block Li Zicheng all the way, and finally drove him to the other side of the Yellow River the day before yesterday.

The three of them share weal and woe along the way, outsiders also say Taoyuan three knots, in fact, they all smell the smell, the smell of copper, if there is no profit, how can they work so hard, relying on the advantage of soldiers and horses to bite Li Zicheng, every bite is a lot of money, but also arouses the greed of the three of them, poor Li Zicheng is already ragged when he crosses the river, haggard like a beggar, these months are almost equivalent to making wedding dresses for others, his heart is extremely hateful, and he swears that sooner or later one day he will make a comeback to kill these wild dogs.

Hate to hate, scold to scold, Li Zicheng gritted his teeth, but Gao Jie and the three began to tear up the wine and sing in Puzhou City!

It is said that Li Zicheng just left on the front foot, and the three of them didn't even have time to count and clean the battlefield and rushed to lead the troops into the city.

The city of Puzhou is empty!
