Geng Yan didn't know that he had already made a big deal out of it, so he winked at Dorgon and replied: "Naturally, the regent asked Weichen to be, and Weichen should be!" ”

Dolgon continued to scold: "You dare to talk back! The northwest has made such a big mess by you, and you have to wipe your ass alone, and hundreds of thousands of soldiers don't want to eat horses, and they have to sunbathe every day! Do you think loneliness is very idle? Can you afford to fail to guard against the rebellion in the northwest in advance? ”

Only then did Geng Yan know the seriousness of the problem, and he didn't dare to speak anymore, so he could only kneel down and confess his guilt. It's a sure thing to be dismissed, but if you have a harder mouth, it's a question of whether your head can be retained.

Geng Yan understood that the rebel army was converging with the Ming army in Shaanxi, and Datong's ginger inlay was another copper pea, because there was really no way to take the copper pea, and Dolgon had to throw away Geng Yan's chopsticks that had been used by him. Scapegoat, whoever makes their name have the word 'swallow' in it, then swallow it all.

Geng Yan was removed from his post and investigated, and the crime was that he failed to prevent the rebellion in the northwest in advance.

Pity this Geng Yan, who only collected grain in the northwest in full accordance with the orders of Azig and Dolgon, and in the end he was the only one who carried the charges of oppressing the people and preventing them improperly.

He was also very unconvinced, even if the basin in the northwest could be buckled on his head, if Prince Ying hadn't robbed other people's brides in broad daylight in Datong, and beat Jiang Xiang, who came to the door to plead, people would not have rebelled, right? This black pot has something to do with me?

Geng Zhuo, who could roll home with a bed, could only sigh and say: "If you don't do it, God will hate it, in the face of a situation where everyone is against you, what's the use of taking precautions?" It's not that I have no one in the court, this is really better to learn than to marry well! For example, the Tong family. The next time you do something immoral for others, you must first observe and observe whether God and Tianlei will be crooked. ”

Tong Yangliang is the kind of person who marries well in Geng Yan's mouth, of course, it is not him who is married, but the eldest concubine of the old Khan King, the mother of the Great Belle Chu Ying - Tong Chunxiu, Tong Yangliang and Tong Yangjia, the governor of Guangdong, Tong Yanghe, the governor of Huguang, and others are all a family. However, the new Xuanda Governor Tong Yangliang is a little different from the first two, he is not only hard in the background, but also has a hard fist. Not only that, as the Tong family in the first surname of the Han Eight Banners, Tong Yangliang is also the most resourceful one in their life.

The battle to attack Daizhou was also very beautiful, what Bolo's main army could not do, he only relied on the 60,000 Han troops that he temporarily looted from Xiong Bao Zuo Menggeng, and he actually did it.

In this battle, Tong Yangliang successively led the superior forces of 60,000 troops to defeat Wanlian's rebel army in the area of Pingxingguan and Yanmen Pass many times. Wan Lian's rebel army had 30,000 men at its peak, but after the defeat of these battles, it was forced to retreat to the mountains.

Tong Yangliang surrounded Wutai Mountain on all sides when Wan Lian's rout army retreated to Wutai Mountain. Then he led a strange army over the mountain and made a detour to the back of Mount Wutai to climb the mountain.

After that, Tong Yangliang attacked downward from the height of the mountain, and gradually broke through Wanlian's camp one by one. He then squeezed the remnants of Wan Lian's army into a narrow strip of mountains, in which the rebels were almost completely annihilated.

I read a memoir, terrorists in Afghanistan guarding a mountain, the American soldiers could not defeat it for ten days and half a month, and then invited the snow leopard to come, but was taught by the snow leopard to be a man, and it was exterminated in less than a day, using the tactics of Tong Yang.

In the end, Tong Yangliang surrounded the last remaining few men and horses of Wan Lian in Huangxiang Village, and Wan Lian fought unyielding in the hopeless situation of breaking through, leading all the remaining rebels to fight to the last man. After the annihilation of the Wanlian Righteous Army, there were no more anti-Qing forces in the Daizhou area and south of it to the Yellow River.

After the gate of the Great Wall of Daizhou was opened, the Duanzhong Prince Boluo, the Chengze Prince Shuosai, and the Doluo Prince Mandahai were all eager to try, and they split up like wild horses to attack the Fenzhou, Pingyang, and Lu'an Mansions in the southwest of Shanxi to regain lost territory.

The movements of these teams were also progressing smoothly, because the rebels of the three provinces had already gone to the empty building at this time, and Dolgon still did not intercept them.

Liu Qian of Fenzhou Mansion, that is, Liu Da, the bankrupt rich man at the beginning of the previous volume in Guanzhong, and a total of 120,000 people from the other two rebel armies, Zheng Mingbiao and Zhang Wugui, retreated to Yan'an Mansion in Shaanxi Province to report to Liu Tichun.

Liu Tichun's military power suddenly grew even stronger, and the total strength has expanded to 240,000 people. In addition, there were three rebel armies of Yu Yin, Han Zhaoxuan, and Li Qisheng, totaling 80,000 people, who followed the Ming army of Pingyang Prefecture and went to Hejin and Hancheng to find Mr. Fu Shan to meet.

There are also five rebel armies of Jiang Jianxun, Hu Guoding, Wei Shijun, Bai Zhang, and Li Jiantai, with a total of 120,000 people, who went to Tongguan. But don't get excited, and don't be frightened by this number, because this number actually includes the families of the rebels and the captive population, and the real fighting strength of these rebels is actually less than half.

When talking about the rebel army, some people often say such a sentence: 20,000 troops and 80,000 families, known as 300,000, this is the stalk left to future generations again and again in reality in the late Ming Dynasty.

But even so, Dolgon would not have any illusions about recovering Shaanxi in the short term, for no other reason, his main army would only attack the enemy who posed the greatest threat to the Qing army, and it was better to have a large-scale decisive battle.

If this were not the case, the little men and horses in Jianzhou alone would not be able to withstand the endless consumption of the Han people with him.

The southern part of Shanxi was recaptured, and the flank threat of the Qing army in Datong was gone.

In the whole of Shanxi, only the lonely city of Datong is still resisting, and outside the city of Datong is the camp of the Qing army that stretches for hundreds of miles, and Jiang Pai will never have foreign aid.

At this time, the time had come to the end of June of the seventh year of Shunzhi (1650).

As one of the nine sides of the Ming Dynasty, Datong is one of the most important military towns in the whole country.

Even if Dolgon had more soldiers, he could only wander around outside the city, and only after the artillery battle was released every day, he would let Zuo Menggeng's Han army go to Datong City to fill the moat with corpses.

Dolgon is fighting for consumption in Datong, but it is Zuo Mengeng who is consumed, but Zuo Mengeng, who was robbed of 60,000 new troops by Dolgon, and is the curator of the corpse exhibition hall every day, does not even dare to let out a fart.
