There is a joke in later life, I have been to East Africa and seen the crooked nuts of wildebeest migration shouting that this is the world's largest animal migration, and immediately Chinese jumped out and slapped their faces, you have never seen the Spring Festival!

Li Zicheng's army at this time played the feeling of spring luck, densely packed with troops from the streets out of the city, banners hunting, people and horses shoulder to shoulder, dense, the front without a head, after the tail is not seen, after the army leaves, the whole street is empty, empty, as if it has become a dead city.

Compared with the time when he entered the Beijing Division, Li Zicheng's army was a lot more, after all, the defenders of the Beijing Division City were demoralized, and they were almost completely received by the Shun army, and the short man could get tens of thousands of people, after the Desheng Gate in the north of the Beijing Division, facing the north, more than 700,000 Shun troops put on a huge suffocating military formation.

However, compared with the army of displaced people who were poor and white when they entered Beijing, it has only been a month, and some irreversible changes have taken place in the Dashun army at this time.

King Chuang has made a fortune, and it's not too much for these little minions to make a little fortune, right? Many Shun Jun suddenly became like women with children, with a thick and heavy burden behind them, which was full of all kinds of money, cloth, some semi-new clothes, what oil, salt, sauce and rice, and even Shun Jun looked at the value of the porcelain tea set in the Beijing shop, and the two huge porcelain vases and bottles were exposed in the baggage.

In the field backpack of the Dongjiang Army, the quilt, spare bayonets, gunpowder, projectiles, and a piece of the strip are about 20 catties, and the strength of these Shun troops even exceeds that of the Dongjiang professional troops, and the heaviest ones are carrying fifty or sixty catties of things.

The Shun army has no long-term side exposed, and it does not regard the Beijing division as a strategic point or even the capital that has been occupied for a long time, from Li Zicheng above to the small soldiers below, they all report a heart of grabbing a vote and leaving, this time they have to leave the city to fight, naturally they have to bring pots and pans, and it is a pity to throw any of them.

This became a heavy burden to the troops.

However, the small soldiers with their belongings are quite light, and with the Dashun army out of the city, there is also a mighty group of wives.

Since King Chuang has made the Dragon Court, then the big guy should also buy his own family, either rob it, or buy it with the money he grabbed, and if there are conditions, he must get a woman as a wife in Beijing.

Carrying a small flower cloth burden, a large group of big girls and daughters-in-law who do not go out of the gate on weekdays are also twisting and taking small steps out of the city.

Ordinary sergeants can get one, and some can't marry, but those Shunjun generals are outstanding, at least three or four at the level of Qianhu, and seven or eight at the leader level, as for Niu Jinxing, Hao Shaoqi, a person without dozens of wives and concubines and servants are embarrassed to come out to meet people, riding precious war horses, groups of ladies and daughters were brought to the camp.

However, among them, Li Zicheng himself with the most wives and concubines, even if Chongzhen is diligent and thrifty, vain and conformist in the court, there are at least a few thousand palace maids who are dedicated to female households, and after suffering for so many years, all of a sudden beauties gathered, and Li Zicheng did not go to the original queen Gao Guiying for so many days in the city, almost every night, but he was reluctant to go out of the city to wage war, and moved out the honor guard in the palace that year, and a huge guard of honor was formed by five hundred palace female eunuchs, and in front of him was a eunuch carrying dust. Behind is a palace maid wearing a fluttering light veil and carrying a huge yellow sedan chair with a fan. When going out of the city, even Li Zicheng's Xiao cavalry battalion had to follow this honor guard and walk slowly, and the momentum of the Xiao cavalry camp that had fought a decisive battle with the Qin army and came and went like lightning was no longer what it used to be.

If the terrifying army of 700,000 is close to prying eyes, it is full of small people, women and children, and nouveau riche. It's a pity that sitting on the yellow shoulder shoulder and swaying gently with the pace, Li Zicheng didn't realize it, wearing that expensive python robe, full of majesty and intoxication, looking around at the banner hunting with the words written in order, as well as his dense army.

The hoe is flying, a group of sergeants wearing red Qianming style armor are also digging the camp, compared to those lazy Dashun army, this army is even more demoralized, one by one listless and not planing the ground, it is estimated that anyone who sees it, can not think of it, this was once the Ming Dynasty ace force Guanning Iron Cavalry.

These days, the Shun army is robbing the joy in the city, but the Guanning army was sent to Tongzhou to camp without even a permission to enter the city, and in no day, there are a large number of Liaodong soldiers fleeing, and the 40,000 troops are now more than 19,000 left, which is still the result of the efforts of the generals to control.

Most of Guan Ningjun's families are in Ningyuan, and this time he actually wanted to take the group of robbers behind him to fight his hometown, and the morale under Wu Sangui's command simply fell to the freezing point.

"Master General!"

In the ground, he lost his temper at the disheartened sergeant, and whipped more than a dozen people with a whip, but in an instant, Li Benshen, the general of Liaozhen, still came to this point with a lot of worries, and bowed deeply to Wu Sangui, who was standing on the platform and looking at Wu Sangui with a telescope.

"General Master, yesterday the Chongzi battalion ran more than forty, and the battle battalion also ran more than thirty, and the last general took his own soldiers to block a few and beheaded, this head was just hung on the edge of the barracks, just went back, and escaped more than a dozen, if it goes on like this, I can't wait for the war, our Guanning army itself will collapse!"

"Something has to be done!"

"Mr. General?"

A few exchanges, this made Wu Sangui come back to his senses, put away the telescope looking at the camp behind him, the deep worry condensed on his handsome brow, no need for Li Benshen to say, he knew that his army was on the verge of falling apart, but what could he do?

"What happened to my father? Have you ever brought out any money? ”

"Master Huijiang! Sanfeng Ye brought out 5,000 taels of silver, but the family was tortured and plundered by Liu Zongmin's more than 100,000 taels of silver, no matter how much, it was really impossible to get out. ”

"Wu Sanfeng, bastard!"

He knows his own family affairs, and he is a big landlord in Liaodong, and under the profit of Liao's salary over the years, the Wu family also has a small savings of two or three hundred thousand taels, even if he was cut by Liu Zongmin, he would not even be able to get some military salary, most likely his eldest brother Wu Sanfeng was reluctant.

But now the Guan Ning Army is about to fall apart, and even the righteousness is gone, Wu Sangui wants to stick to the cracks, only silver, if there is no Guan Ning Army, his Wu family is not a fart, Wu Sangui has no doubt that if he finds an excuse, Liu Zongmin can throw himself into the Jinyi Wei Prison and play with those nobles and nobles, and then the Wu family will not be able to keep any property left, and even his life may be lost.

Gritting his teeth, Wu Sangui threw a whip to the ground.

But after being angry for a long time, he still deflated like a leaky ball, Wu Sanfeng didn't give money, what could he do? Learn from Liu Zongmin to go to the city to put a big flail on his father and brother?

"A while ago, in the north of Tongzhou, a few Zhuangzi were quite complete, so let Sanbiaozi take someone to clean it up at night, try to get something, and send it to the brothers for peace of mind."

"The last general knows!"

This is going to go out secretly to rob, and it can be regarded as a way out of the way, with a heavy fist, Li Benshen also bowed helplessly, turned around and left.

…………

The Shun army is too large and bloated, and it has been gathered for another day, and there is still a part of the Shun army that has not completed the assembly, and the food and salary copied from the dignitaries and nobles Zhuangzi are not in place, and the sun is westward, and the Shun army who has been working for half a day is lazy to stir up the horse spoon around the marching pot, and some of them are energetic, and those who can't hold back their spring hearts are taking the women they just got in Beijing, and the rats who are in estrus are drilling around the wild kiln.

Guanning Barracks.

The little property brought back from the looting did not seem to have achieved any obvious effect, a person did not even share a tael of silver, and even when Li Benshen divided the things, many pro-soldiers were too lazy to come and take it, just under their noses, in the afternoon, his Guan Ning army ran another three or four hundred people, at this speed, I am afraid that before reaching Shanhaiguan, he Wu Sangui will have to become a lonely man first.

He didn't even have the heart to chase down the deserters, Wu Sangui was like a trapped beast, his eyes were blood-red, staring at the flickering candles on the table, he now regretted surrendering to Li Chuang. Stupidly took the initiative to poke the hornet's nest of the Dongjiang River, not to mention, this battle, his troops were also placed in the northernmost side, needless to say, when fighting with Mao Jue, the Guanning army was going to be used as cannon fodder, with today's Guanning army, Wu Sangui could not see the slightest hope of victory.

If I knew that I would have to die like this, it was better to die in a vigorous battle under the Jingshi City, so that I could win a clear name in history.

However, at the thought of death, fear was like a demon biting Wu Sangui's heart, making him restless, more and more irritable, and after a few circles, Wu Sangui suddenly picked up the candlestick next to him and smashed it to the ground, but as the candlestick landed, an exclamation suddenly sounded.

I don't know when, a slightly short Wu Jun opened the tent door, walked in with a food box, the candle smashed right in front of her small boots, obviously different from the man's delicate face frightened white, a pair of beautiful eyebrows frowned.

But listening to her exclamation, Wu Sangui's expression was rarely softer, this is the only benefit of him to join Li Chuang, taking advantage of the night he entered the city, he went back to the mansion to pick up his most beloved concubine Chen Yuanyuan, and did not let her be included in Liu Zongmin's hungry ghost as in history.

Putting aside the food box in Chen Yuanyuan's hand, he reached out and hugged the woman in his arms, and pillowed his head on his chest, Chen Yuanyuan also closed his eyes quietly and leaned quietly.

Fingers stroked her long silky hair, enjoying the rare precision in fear, but after a few strokes, suddenly a little brightness burst out from Wu Sangui's pupils.

"Yuanyuan, are you willing to sacrifice for Ben General?"
