Chapter 265: The situation changed dramatically

Recently, Chongzhen children's shoes are very troublesome.

Half a year ago, Emperor Jiannu Taiji unified the Mongolian steppe, integrated the cavalry of various Mongolian departments, and invaded the south in a big way, trying to break through from Xuanfu and Datong.

After Chongzhen children's shoes heard the report, he urgently transferred Lu Xiangsheng's department to Datong to resist the Tartar Kouguan.

Lu Xiang ascended to Datong and immediately reorganized his army and prepared for battle. Relying on the steepness of the Great Wall, Lu Xiangsheng successfully kept the Tartars out of the country, and the two sides fought back and forth on the Great Wall line for a long time.

Lu Xiangsheng blocked the southern invasion of the Tartars, which is good news. However, bad news kept coming from the Central Plains.

Because Lu Xiangsheng's troops went north, resulting in the emptiness of the Central Plains official army, Li Zicheng, Luo Rucai and other rogues took the opportunity to recruit troops and buy horses, and developed rapidly, successively capturing most of the state capitals in Henan, Shanxi, and Shaanxi.

In the past six months, Chongzhen has continued to receive urgent documents from Henan and Hebei, but he has suffered from the lack of effective generals and troops to be deployed.

Chongzhen was furious and sent them all to prison, the heads who should be killed, and the exiles who should be exiled.

However, the anger was out, but Chongzhen Children's Shoes was depressed and found that he still had no troops to adjust, no generals to send, and the chaos in various places was still not contained, but intensified.

Seeing the situation in the Central Plains eroding day by day, Chongzhen was so anxious that his throat was smoking, but he had nothing to do, he was anxious and angry, and finally fell ill.

Chongzhen, who was seriously ill, remembered Zhu Dadian, who led troops to quell the Denglai Rebellion at the end of last year and the beginning of this year.

Therefore, Chongzhen ordered Wang Chengen to draft an edict, asking Zhu Dadian to lead the soldiers and horses of Shandong and Denglai to come to King Qin to prevent Li Zicheng's thief army from invading Gyeonggi.

Zhu Dadian's performance in the rebellion of Kong Youde in Shandong and Denglai was undoubtedly outstanding, and it took only two months to extinguish the troubled Kong Youde.

However, Chongzhen Children's Shoes ignored a problem, that is, most of Zhu Dadian's achievements in Shandong and Denglai were actually due to the new Liao army led by Mo Li. If there is no New Liao Army, Zhu Dadian will not be able to put down the rebellion, but he will not even be able to save his own life.

Of course, this is not to say that Zhu Dadian is useless, in fact, Zhu Dadian is still very talented, otherwise he would not have been able to successfully resist the red hair back then, so as to obtain the qualification for promotion for himself.

After Zhu Dadian learned that Li Zicheng's thief army was approaching Gyeonggi and received the order of the imperial court, he immediately organized 15,000 troops and personally led the army north to suppress Li Zicheng.

However, this time, Zhu Dadian, who did not have Mo Li's help, seemed to have no good luck. The army drove to the boundary of Zhending Mansion, that is, it encountered Liu Fangliang, the general of Li Zicheng's subordinates, and the two sides fought fiercely for three days, and finally Zhu Dadian was defeated and retreated, and led the remnants of more than 8,000 people to flee to Hejian Mansion in embarrassment.

Zhu Dadian was also defeated, and Chongzhen's shoes were even cooler and colder.

A few months ago, Xiong Mingyu, the secretary of the Ministry of War, had been removed from his post and imprisoned by Chongzhen because of the chaos raging by Li Zicheng in the Central Plains, and the new secretary of the Ministry of War was Zhang Fengyi.

Zhang Fengyi is also an unlucky child, he encountered such a turbulent military situation when he first took office, received bad news in three days, and was scolded several times by Chongzhen Tongshou not long after taking office.

When Zhu Dadian was defeated and Chongzhen asked Ji Qunchen in the palace, Zhang Fengyi proposed that Cao Wenzhao of Shanhaiguan and Zu Dacheng of Ningyuan be dispatched to rush to destroy the thief army that was forcing Jinggi with the remnants of Zhu Dadian.

Chongzhen thought about it, now most of the Tartar troops are outside Xuanfu and Datong, and there are no troops in Liaodong, so Liaodong has nothing to worry about, and there is still Jin Guoqi to defend it, but Cao Wenzhao and Zu Dacheng can be transferred to quell the rebellion.

So, Chongzhen issued an order to Cao Wenzhao and King Zu Dachengqin to suppress the thieves.

Cao Wenzhao and Zu Dacheng did not dare to slack off after receiving the holy decree, and quickly gathered their soldiers and horses to kill Hebei.

After more than a year of development, there are more than 20,000 people under Cao Wenzhao's command, in addition to leaving 3,000 soldiers and horses to guard Shanhaiguan, a total of 18,000 people went out with Cao Wenzhao this time.

Zu Dacheng also had 10,000 horses under his tent, except for Wu Sangui who led 3,000 men and horses to garrison Ningyuan, and the other generals all followed Zu Dacheng Qinwang.

Cao Wenzhao is known as the first good general in the world, and Zu Dacheng is also a famous general, the two led nearly 30,000 horses to Hebei, but they were still defeated by the peasant army one after another.

At this time, Li Zicheng's subordinates had a total of nearly 300,000 troops, known as one million, all the way to Gyeonggi, preparing to encircle the Beijing division.

It's really a hillside somewhere.

The shouts of killing were endless, and there were soldiers fighting everywhere, and everywhere there were fallen soldiers who fell to the ground from time to time, and blood flowed all over the ground.

Zu Dacheng rode on a white horse, looking at the rebel soldiers pouring in like a tide under the hillside, and felt a burst of despair.

Since engaging the rebels five days ago, he has been defeated again and again, and although he has killed many rebels, this has no effect on the change in the situation of the war, and there are too many rebels.

Cao Wenzhao is no better. His 18,000 men and horses have also fought several battles in succession since they encountered the rebels, but they have not gained the upper hand at all, but have been forced to retreat one after another.

At this moment, Cao Wenzhao was fighting with the rebels in Ganwei, dozens of miles away, and he couldn't rescue Zu Dacheng at all.

And Zu Dacheng at this moment, there are only about 3,000 people left, and most of them are injured. And the rebels, at least ten times as many as them, maybe more.

"Third brother, there are too many rebels! The brothers can't stand it, hurry up and break through! Zu Dabi carried a bloody spear, panted and ran to Zu Dacheng, and said loudly.

"Breakout? Where to break through? Dabi, look, where can we break through? Zu Dacheng pointed to the dense rebel soldiers at the bottom of the mountain and said with a wry smile.

"What then? Third brother, it's hard to wait for death here! Zu Dabi said anxiously.

"Of course we are not waiting for death, we are just dying, and we must die on the battlefield with dignity!" Zu Dacheng gritted his teeth and said in a sad voice: "Today may be the time for us to be loyal to the Ming Dynasty and the emperor!" The emperor will eventually know that our ancestral family can also dye rivers and mountains for the same! Brethren! Kill them all with me! ”

As he spoke, Zu Dacheng held the reins of his horse in one hand and a spear in the other, and rushed towards the rebels who rushed up.

Zu Dabi opened his eyes and patted his horse to follow.

It was Liu Tichun and Hao Shaoqi under Li Zicheng's account who led the troops to besiege Zu Dacheng. Originally, after they forced Zu Dacheng to this hillside, they had already discussed and decided to recruit Zu Dacheng, after all, they had no reinforcements and no way back.

However, Zu Dacheng frantically led his troops to kill, wanting to break through, and had no intention of surrendering, Liu Tichun and Hao Shaoqi hurriedly ordered their subordinates to intercept, and the two sides fought fiercely again......
