In the blink of an eye, it was April, scattered from Shanhaiguan to both sides, the capital and Shenyang, the three places were extremely tense, the army was dignified, and the atmosphere was dry.

Shenyang.

Huang Taiji received Fan Wenchen's head, staring at the lime box with a pale face, his eyes widening angrily and fiercely.

Ning Wan me in front of him, Queen Zhezhe and others all changed their faces greatly.

Even if he had expected something a long time ago, he was still shocked and his face turned white.

"Zhou Zhengyun'er!"

Huang Taiji roared angrily, and after shouting, he suddenly snorted, a mouthful of blood spurted out, and he fell straight down.

After Ning finished me, Zhezhe and the others were shocked, and hurriedly stepped forward to support him, and at the same time shouted at the imperial doctor.

Half an hour later, the imperial physician left from Huang Taiji's couch and said to Zhezhe and others: "Niangniang, Your Majesty is angry and overly sad, the slave has already prescribed medicine, and Your Majesty will be fine after a few days of rest." ”

Only then did Zhezhe and the others rest assured, and hurriedly asked the imperial doctor to decoct the medicine.

Huang Taiji was lying on the bed, his face was pale, his breath was weak, and he said, "Big brother." ”

Dai Shan had already rushed over, and hurriedly stepped forward when he listened.

The corners of Huang Taiji's mouth were still bloodshot, and he looked sideways at Dai Shan and said, "Zilharang, where is Dolgon?" ”

This time, it was Zilharang and Dolgon who led the troops to Xifengkou.

Dai Shan was stunned, and wanted to appease a few words, but said: "According to estimates, there are still two people who can go to Xifengkou." ”

Huang Taiji's gaze swept over Ning Wan, Duoduo and the others, and said with anger in his eyes: "Zhou Zhengyun killed my important minister, I must not bear it!" Immediately mobilize all the troops and horses, and immediately send troops to the big and small Linghe. ”

Dai Shan looked shocked and said, "Your Majesty, your body has not healed, and the winter snow has not disappeared, so it is not appropriate to send troops." ”

The corners of Huang Taiji's face twitched, and he said coldly: "This is my order!" ”

Dai Shan looked at Huang Taiji's determined expression, and then looked at Ning Wan and the others.

These people are silent, Huang Taiji has always been decisive and resolute, once he decides, others can't oppose it.

Dai Shan was silent for a while, and said, "Okay, what about Dongjiang Town?" ”

Huang Taiji's eyes were cold, and he said, "They are all infantry, they don't dare to take risks, and Zhou Zhengyun doesn't dare to let them go north at this time." I want to break through Jinzhou and enter Shanhaiguan, and I want Zhou Zheng's big dream to be completely shattered! ”

Dai Shan knew that Huang Taiji hated Zhou Zheng very much, raised his hand and said, "Obey the order." ”

Dai Shan and others were ordered to leave, quickly mobilized troops and horses, and also asked the Mongol allies for reinforcements.

Shenyang was turbulent, the army was frequently moved, and it was soon found out by the military intelligence department, and the flying pigeon passed the book to Liaodong and Shanhaiguan.

On the fifth day of April, Shanhaiguan.

In the camp of Zhengxi, only Zhou Zheng, Sun Chuanting, Meng Hezhou and others, Cao Wenzhao, Man Gui and others have gone to Yongping Mansion, each leading men and horses, ready to send troops at any time.

Sun Chuanting planted a flag on the sand table and said: "We thought that Li Zicheng would divide his troops into three ways, but now it seems that he has neglected to surrender to the generals. Wu Sangui, Tang Tong and others led the army to bypass Beishan, cross the Great Wall, and attempt to detour north of Shanhaiguan, behind us. ”

Meng Hezhou summed up the information and said: "Gao Jie said that Jianyu's people had a secret conversation with Li Zicheng alone, and they tried twice, Li Zicheng did not leak anything, and it is impossible to determine whether he is in confluence with Jianyu for the time being. ”

Sun Chuanting planted a flag on the north side of the Great Wall and said, "A piece of stone, this is the most suitable battlefield for blocking." Wu Sangui and others led an army of 20,000, plus Jianyu, we may need 50,000 to stop them. ”

Meng Hezhou glanced at Zhou Zheng and said, "Jianyu has already sent troops to Linghe, and they should arrive in three days." General Jin has already made a military order to defend Jinzhou and ensure that he will not lose. ”

Yao Tong came in obediently from the outside, and said with a condensation: "My lord, there are some people in Hejian Mansion and Yongping Mansion who have ill-intentioned intentions and have correspondence with the thieves, and want to betray your lordship. ”

Zhou Zheng put his hands behind his back, looked at the sand table, silent.

The current Zhou Zheng really has a bit of an embattled taste, with winds coming from all directions, and crises everywhere.

Seeing that Zhou Zheng didn't speak, Sun Chuanting stood up and looked at him, and pondered: "Huang Taiji only has 30,000 people at most, even if he fights hard, he can't fight Jinzhou." Huang Taiji should know that he is doing this just to put pressure on us. Just let Dongjiang Town move around, no need to worry. The 20,000 men of Zilharan and Dolgon are indeed a problem, their cavalry comes and goes freely, and if they attack either of us, they will indeed affect the situation outside the pass. But they shouldn't go deep into the pass, if they accidentally break the halberd, and there are 30,000 people left, then they will be equivalent to the destruction of the country. ”

Zhou Zheng answered at this time and said lightly: "Five days, five days at most!" As long as I can block Wu Sangui and Jianyu for five days, I can defeat Li Zicheng and recover the capital, do you have a way? ”

Sun Chuanting looked at Zhou Zheng, thought about it seriously, and said: "Plug the gap in the Great Wall, and fight with Wu Sangui, Tang Tong and others in the pass, and the Great Wall will defend Jianyu." Li Zicheng set seventeen troops, and there are still more than ten days, which should be enough. ”

It's also risky, and if this gap fails, it could jeopardize the whole picture!

Zhou Zheng's eyes narrowed, and he said in a deep voice: "Zhao led the teaching, Cao Wen Zhao wen, each with 20,000 elite soldiers." Yang Guozhu, Man Gui led 40,000 troops for the left wing, and the official himself led 40,000 and Cao Bianjiao's 20,000 cavalry for the middle road. Don't wait, two days later, send troops! ”

Sun Chuanting heard the surprise, and hurriedly raised his hand and said, "Yes!" ”

Zhou Zheng put his hands behind his back and looked at the north, his expression was like iron, and his eyes were like attention.

Yao Tongshun looked at Zhou Zheng's expression and took a hard breath.

Something big is coming!

With Zhou Zheng's order, the more than 100,000 troops in Yongping Mansion quickly moved.

Cao Wenzhao and Zhao led their troops straight to a piece of stone, wanting to separate the prisoners from the thieves and block them here.

Cao Bianjiao, Man Gui, Yang Guozhu and others reorganized the army, divided it into two wings, and prepared to advance in the direction of the capital.

Zhou Zheng took the lead, and the 'sudden' dispatch of troops naturally alarmed many people, and many people felt that Zhou Zheng was in a hurry, and hoped that he would wait a little longer, or wait for Li Zicheng to come, and wait for his work instead of rushing to the capital.

No matter what these people thought, Zhou Zheng had already ridden a horse and headed for the capital with an army of 80,000.

Tianjin Wei and Yongping Mansion are close to each other, and Zhou Zheng's every move is clearly known here.

Zhou Mansion.

Zhou Qingli stood under the eaves, listening to Fu Bo's report, and silently looked at the direction of the capital. He furrowed his brows, his face dark and expressionless.

Shangguan Qing stood behind him with two children, his expression worried.

The army led by Zhou Zheng is 80,000, Li Zicheng may have more than 100,000, Zhou Zheng hastily dispatched troops, and is at a disadvantage in momentum, this big battle, victory or defeat is unpredictable!

Defeated, the historical positioning of the Zhou family is the last Ming army, Tianjin Wei will be flattened, and none of them will be spared!

As soon as Zhou Zheng moved, Li Zicheng quickly received the news and was immediately furious.

"Zhou Zheng Xiaoer, I didn't kill him, he actually dared to come and die!" Li Zicheng patted the dragon chair and shouted coldly.

General Liu Zongmin stepped forward and said loudly: "Just one Zhou Zheng, big brother, give me 40,000 people, and I will bring his head back to you!" ”

"I only need 30,000!"

"I only need 30,000!"

A group of 'brilliant' generals suddenly clamored to compete for this merit.

Li Zicheng looked angry, looked at everyone and waved his hand and said: "Needless to say, I want to drive the imperial conquest in person, exterminate Zhou Zhengyun, and then return to Beijing to ascend the throne!" ”
