Soon the Liukou side came to the Changping Prefecture area along the official road, which is the north gate of the Ming Empire's Gyeonggi, and after here, you can enter the Gyeonggi area by walking forward, so the nearby Huailaiwei, Yanqingzhou, Yanqingwei, Bohai Shouyu Qianhusuo, Baiyangkou Shouyu Qianhusuo, these five Ming armies began to send troops to support Changping Prefecture one after another.

For a time, the Liukou army was blocked here, and the five Ming armies quickly assembled to approach the Liukou army in a formation with infantry and cavalry charging in front, musketeers in the middle, and artillery battalions in the rear, and cooperated with the Ming troops defending the city in Changping Prefecture to form a three-way firepower point to effectively hit the Dashun army. The left wing army of Liukou, Dashun Ruhou: Liu Zongmin, was heavily shelled by the Ming army, and the Liukou right-wing army Dashun Mianhou: Yuan Zongdi was subjected to intensive fire by the Ming army's gunners, and the Dashun Emperor who was in the Chinese army was protected by the Dashun Zehou: Tian Jianxiu, Dashun Guangshanbo: Liu Tichun, and other generals protected and saw that they were close to Gyeonggi, but they had to be dragged by the Ming army, so the Dashun Emperor was very unwilling.

The soldiers of the Shun army around him kept coming to report and said, "Your Majesty, the Ming army is attacking too fiercely!" I am afraid that our army will be defeated for the safety of His Majesty, so please move elsewhere as soon as possible, so that our army can arrange a counterattack plan. ”

In fact, this is the meaning of the generals of the Shun army, thinking that Emperor Shun has a lot of inconvenience in the army, in case he is captured, it will outweigh the loss! So he had to persuade him to stay away for a while, but Emperor Dashun didn't want to give up this gain!

So he was in a hurry and had a plan? Shaking his hand, he ordered Li Yan, the general of the right battalion of Dashun, and said, "Quickly go and pull up the kings of the Ming Dynasty who were captured before." ”

The general of the right battalion of Dashun, who understood his mind, received the order and said: "The last general understands!" Then the soldiers of the Shun army escorted the kings of the Ming Dynasty who were wearing regular clothes up.

I saw that there were three fat vassal kings who were brought to the front of the battle, among them, except for Prince Ming Qingwen, who was originally captured in Ningxia Zhongwei: Zhu Zhuohong, who did not pay attention to the opportunity to escape when he changed the guard at night, there were only the remaining three heavyweight vassal kings, namely; Prince Su of the Ming and Jin Dynasty: Zhu Xianxuan, Prince Xian of the Ming Dynasty: Zhu Chuanqi, Prince Jing of the Ming Dynasty: Zhu Cunji, these three vassal kings were brought up.

Ming Changping Zhizhou on the tower of Changping Prefecture: Yin Zi, as soon as he saw the three vassal kings in front of the Liukou army, he ordered the Ming army in the city to stop attacking, and shouted, "If you boldly attack the city, you will attack the city, what does it mean to bring the vassal kings up?" ”

At this time, the generals of the Ming army were stunned by the actions of the rogue in front of them, and they didn't know what to do? After hesitating for a while, Ming Changping Zhizhou finally decided to take the lead in leading the soldiers out of the city, and opened the door to return to the Liukou to protect the people and avoid the crime of killing the vassal king.

The other three Ming army generals saw that the Ming army in Changping Prefecture stopped fighting, and they also stopped fighting, and the rogues took knives on the necks of the three Ming vassal kings, and the Dashun Linqu man: Gao Yigong, shouted in front of the battle, "Listen to the generals of the Ming army, we have three Ming vassal kings in our hands, if they are resisting?" As long as I wave my hand lightly and order, then the three royal highnesses of the vassal kings will definitely fall to the ground, and then they will bombard this Changping Prefecture, if you know each other, you should surrender as soon as possible! Otherwise, the crime of killing the vassal king will be decided! ”

In order to force them to surrender as soon as possible, Emperor Dashun took the opportunity to order the artillerymen of the Shun army to bombard the Ming army, causing the Ming Huailai Wei to command the envoy: Liu Yinghua, the first to flee and flee with the Huailai Wei Ming army!

Subsequently, Yanqing Prefecture and Yanqing Weiming Army felt that the general trend had gone, and they also chose to evacuate and defend the city as soon as possible, so Emperor Dashun successfully occupied Changping Prefecture again, ordered to deal with local affairs, and planned to organize the soldiers, horses, grain and grass to continue the attack.

At the same time, the Qinwang Ming army in the south quickly went north from the Huai'an Mansion in the south and entered the Tancheng County area of the Chengxuan Political Division in Shandong, and Wu Junzhen, who came here again, was deeply touched, and he pondered as he walked, wondering what he was thinking?

Seeing this, Ma Wei, who was in the accompanying army, quickly walked up, patted him on the shoulder and asked, "What is Brother Wu thinking?" Are you thinking about His Royal Highness the county lord? ”

The upright Wu Junzhen immediately replied: "Brother Ma, don't think crookedly!" I'm thinking about the Mr. Long we escorted before, I don't know how I've been doing lately? ”

Ma Wei shook his head when he heard this, and said, "Brother Wu, don't worry about Mr. Long's missionaries all over the Central Plains, presumably he is busy collecting disciples now?" ”

At this moment, the soldiers in the front team suddenly stopped their pace, causing the soldiers behind to stop, and the whole platoon of Ming troops could not advance, Wu Junzhen found that something was wrong and wanted to go up to the front team to take a look, Ma Wei and Liu Ruilin also followed.

I saw that many people were fleeing on the official road? Most of the people in the crowding of the Ming army were refugees dressed in shabby clothes! This made the Ming army very panicked, in order to maintain order, the Ming Nan Zhili Military Department Shangshu: Shi Kefa, rode a horse and stood up and shouted, "Fellow villagers, don't panic, if there is anything to talk to the governor, the governor will definitely help everyone." ”

After hearing this, some fugitive people put down their burdens and cried: "There are generals in front of them, who are opposed!" The city is being captured, and the adults are invited to quickly lead the troops to quell the rebellion. ”

Heard that a general rebelled? Mingnan Zhili Military Department Shangshu was a little surprised! He asked, "Do you know who the rebel is, folks?" The people quickly replied, "It seems to be the Baoding general soldier who rebelled in November of the sixteenth year of Chongzhen: Liu Chao? ”

Hearing that this person was attacking the city and plundering the land, the Ming Nan Zhili Military Department Shangshu wanted to clean up the rebel generals, he first sent the Ming Fujian Xingdu Commander to lead the Fujian Ming Army to Qizhou to explore the situation, and then let the Ming Ningbo Wei Commander: Wei Zhenhui, Ming Shaoxing General Soldier: Guo Dingning, responsible for going to the nearby villages to see if anyone was killed, and the rest of the army camped on the spot to rest for a while.

The Ming Aid Suppression of the Northeast Naval Division, who did not know his meaning: Huang Fei, asked Shangshu of the Ming Southern Zhili Military Department, "Lord Shi Shangshu, there is something I don't understand in the end?" ”

Seeing the intention, the Shangshu of the Ming Nan Zhili Military Department touched his beard and smiled, pointed at him and said, "You want to ask why this governor is camping on the spot?" Why send an army to find out the whereabouts of the people nearby? ”

The curious Ming Aid Suppression Northeast Navy Division Chief Soldier nodded and said, "Please also ask Lord Shi Shangshu to reveal one or two!" ”

Seeing that his henchmen didn't know the inside story, he had to introduce them one by one: "This governor has long been aware of the plague disaster in the Central Plains, and since the fourteenth year of Chongzhen, there have often been plagues in Xuzhou, north of the Southern Zhili, Qingzhou Mansion and Yanzhou Mansion in Shandong, and the Daimyo Mansion and Shunde Mansion of the Northern Zhili, which have caused the people to rob the official mansion from thieves!" Ben asked the soldiers to go to the nearby villages to find out if there was any plague? If there is, our army can bypass the disaster area, and if not, then we will also take King Qin as the main one to avoid the rogue first. ”

After listening to Lord Shi Shangshu's words, he was very impressed by the commander-in-chief of the Northeast Naval Division, and he couldn't help but praise, "Lord Shi Shangshu's move is really high!" ”

At this time, the rebel general: Liu Chao, who was secretly communicating with the Liukou army of the Eastern Expedition, asked the soldiers to send a letter to Liu Fangliang, the general of the left battalion of Dashun, and agreed that the two armies would meet in the capital of Yanzhou Prefecture.

However, the general of the left battalion of Dashun has a military order in his body, and he is responsible for cutting off the way for the Ming court to flee south, and now the general of the left battalion of Dashun has made a northern expedition to the area of Hejian Prefecture in Beizhili, so it is naturally impossible to go south to Shandong to declare the political secretary Yanzhou Mansion to join forces with a general who betrayed the Ming Empire to attack the local city.

And the reason why the rebel general Liu Chao did this was to use the power of the Liukou army to help him fight for territory, and then he would claim the king and hegemony on the hegemonic side, but the Liukou general had already seen through his conspiracy, so he just sent some soldiers to join him, nominally to attack the city with him, but in fact, he would annex his army as soon as he had the opportunity.

The cause of this incident all started from (the people of Dongyang County: Xu Du, gathering people to raise the flag) Ming Baoding General Army: Liu Chao, before the rebellion against the Ming Empire, he and the Ming Fujian Political Secretary Right Participation in Politics: Zhu Dadian, and other Ming generals together to encircle and suppress the rebels in Dongyang County, Jinhua Mansion, Zhejiang Chengxuan Political Division, who knew that the Ming Baoding General Army was undecided to wait and see and raise the flag.

Therefore, he was supervised by the Ming Henan Imperial History: Wei Jingqi, who wrote a song and scolded Liu Chao as a "thief", and this matter was also raised by Yongcheng County, Kaifeng Prefecture, Henan Chengxuan: Qiao Mingkai, made a big fuss and deliberately reported to the government and let his acquaintance Ming Bing Branch Zuo give the matter: Fang Shiliang, who took the opportunity to impeach that the Ming Baoding General Army was overwhelmed, which made him very angry.

Only on November 11, the sixteenth year of Chongzhen, he rebelled against the Ming Empire and sent troops to kill the Ming Henan Supervision Imperial History: Wei Jingqi, a family of more than 30! He also killed Qiao Mingkai and the chief trainee of Yongcheng in the Ming Dynasty: Wang Qizhen, occupied Yongcheng County and rebelled against the Ming, and also took down the Ming Tiger and Leopard Banner and set up his own (Liu) flag.

It happened that Emperor Dashun sent generals to the east, which allowed Liu Chao to attack many cities nearby and occupy them one after another; Henan Cheng announced the political secretary Kaifeng Mansion, Shandong Cheng announced the political secretary Dongchang Mansion and Yanzhou Prefecture Yanggu County part of the area.

Last year, in the sixteenth year of Ming Chongzhen, in 1643 A.D., there was the governor of Ming Henan: Wang Han, who led the troops to besiege the rebels by secret order, but the more people who joined the rebel army, the more people who joined the rebel army, so that the Ming army was repeatedly defeated, among which the mobilized Ming army generals had the Ming army department left waiter: practicing state affairs, the right waiter of the Ming army: Ding Kuichu, the Ming Guide general soldier: Zhang Xing, the commander of the Ming Chongyang guard: Xing Jianqi, and others cooperated with the night to open the north gate to welcome the army of the Ming Henan governor into the city.

The next day, he fought with Liu Chao in the streets, but he was unexpectedly defeated by the rebels, and the governor of Ming Henan was killed! Since then, the prestige of the rebels has been further enhanced, so that the rebels can gain a foothold in Shandong and Henan.

Recalling all this, the rebel Liu Chao was very beautiful, but when he came back to his senses, he took off the chain mail on his body, picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, and said slowly, "Where is the person coming?" Hurry up and find the general of Dashun Fei County, I want to ask why there is no news of the general of Dashun? ”

The soldiers who walked into the hall of the state government of Jining Prefecture were ordered to retreat in a hurry, and as soon as they walked out of the door, they met the general manager of the county department of Dashun Fei who came to the hall of the state government: Fang Chengshan, and the general manager of the Tao Department of Dashunding: Pei Enzhi, the two of them came over with letters, and the rebel soldiers were overjoyed and hurriedly led them in.

Liu Chao, the rebel general in the state government hall, saw the general of the Liukou coming, and thought it was a reply letter? He was very happy, and immediately got up and said, "Two generals, take your seats quickly!" ”

Who knew that the next moment, the general manager of Dashun Fei County took out the letter and opened it, and said, "Our army has just received news that the Ming army brigade is coming, and the patrol division of Guanyang Town, Maoyang Town, and the Shagou Patrol Division of Teng County will attack for a generation, do we have to take action?" ”

The rebel general Liu Chao was very angry when he heard that the Ming army was coming, and immediately put away his smile and said: "Damn the Ming army, this is going to force the general to death!" Where's the person? Quickly gather troops and horses, and they were about to besiege the Ming army. ”

The Ming army, which had found out the situation in Qizhou here, marched to the city of Feixian to kill under the leadership of the commander of the Ming Fujian Xingdu.
