Wang Yan led the people south, walked for nine days, met Fang Guoan's army, and settled down a little in his heart, but he looked back behind him, but he didn't see Li Taizhen's troops chasing after him, and he was a little uneasy in his heart.

The army and the people went all the way, and when they arrived outside the city of Hangzhou, there were finally defeated soldiers who fled to Hangzhou, and Wang Yan saw that there were only seven or eight people left with five thousand children, and he couldn't help but feel sad from his heart.

The defeated soldiers cried and said: "General Li is dead, Hu Weizong is missing, and the soldiers of the northern captives have followed." ”

Wang Yanzhi suddenly exclaimed sadly: "If you lose Taizhen today, it is like breaking an arm!" ”

The people knew that Li Taizhen, who had been cut off by them, together with 5,000 Yangzhou children, was folded at Wusongkou, and they also wept silently.

Wang Yan sent Wang Shixiu to Wusongkou to collect Li Taizhen's corpse in grief, but when Wang Shixiu arrived secretly, the Songjiang gentry had spontaneously collected the corpses of thousands of Ming soldiers in Wusongkou and buried them in a large tomb, writing: "What is the desire for the country to break and the family to die, there is a Wang Shi on the bank of the Wusong River, and five thousand righteous people died generously, and they did not live up to Shenzhou and the king." ”

At this time, Wang Yan's sentry cavalry left behind him came to report and said: "The cavalry is only more than 20 miles away from Hangzhou, and the sentry cavalry has already engaged the enemy cavalry, and the soldiers of the northern captives are just around the corner." ”

Li Taizhen was held captive at Wusongkou for seven days, and finally the soldiers and civilians of Yangzhou ran safely to the city of Hangzhou, if he was defeated one day earlier, the northern captives could catch up with the soldiers and civilians on the way south, and the consequences would be unimaginable.

At this time, Wang Yan had to clean up his mood, and ordered He Gang, Qu Congzhi, Wang Zhangjue and others to embrace the people into the city, and then personally led the army to stay behind to prevent the northern cavalry from being killed.

On the city wall, Lu Fan, together with Ma Shiying, Ruan Dacheng and other ministers, watched the soldiers and civilians outside the city wave with Wang Yanling's flag, the war drums beaten, and immediately divided into two groups, the people helped the old and the young, entered the city of Hangzhou, and the soldiers took guns and swords, and the cold light shone towards the camp flag behind Wang Yan.

The army of 30,000, with the beat of the drums, under the command of many military schools, soon set up a formation outside the city, with a hundred carts in the front, two Francophone machines, spearmen and palladium boring hands in the back, and then the bird commander in the front, the three-eyed commander, the rocket in the back, and finally a large number of infantry troops waiting for the day.

Outside the city of Yangzhou, 80,000 Qing troops abandoned their armor and fled, Wang Yan obtained a mountain of materials, he selected the most sophisticated armor, weapons and equipment army, the entire 30,000 horses and horses are extremely elite, compared to the Ministry of State Security, the appearance is several steps better.

At this time, Wang Yan personally led the Chinese army, Chen Yujie was in front, Wang Wei was on the left, Wang Zhiduan was on the right, and nearly a thousand cavalry roamed the two wings, which filled the city with a sense of slaughter, so that Lu Fan and others in the city were slightly shocked, and secretly praised in their hearts: "It's really a male soldier!" ”

More than 200,000 people, with more than 10,000 people of the Ministry of State Security, poured into the city, and there was not an hour when all of them could not pass through the city gates.

At noon, dozens of horsemen galloped from the sky, it was Wang Yan's Ming army sentry behind the army, I saw that they were all wounded, and some even had feather arrows in their backs, all the way back to the formation.

The Chinese army waved the flag and immediately made way for these sentinels, and when they entered the battle, the army immediately closed again.

Liu Shun ran all the way to Wang Yan's side, turned over and dismounted, and the feather arrow inserted in his back shook with his movements, "General! There are nearly 20,000 cavalry in the north, all of them are real Manchurian and Mongolian soldiers, and they are here in a moment! ”

When Wang Yan heard this, he first asked Liu Shun to retreat to check his injuries, and then his face was solemn, the army of Yangzhou has always fought with the city, and has not fought with the cavalry of the North in the field. Although he transformed nearly 100 cars into a car camp when he left Yangzhou, he had never experienced actual combat, and he couldn't help but be a little worried.

A moment later, dust rose from the sky, and the soldiers of the Ming army couldn't help but clench the instruments in their hands.

Slowly, one horse, two horses, and finally turned into a mountain full of northern cavalry, coming from a distance, like a moving carpet, and like a flood that burst the embankment, the momentum was shocking.

In the Ming army, the drums were erected, the horns were repeated, and the 30,000 Ming troops followed the rhythm of the drums and shouted in unison: "Ming Dynasty!" The blood doesn't run dry! Fight to the death! ”

On the battlefield, a murderous aura spread overwhelmingly, and the galloping Beiyu cavalry stopped suddenly five hundred steps away from the Ming army's main array, looking extremely strong.

The commander of the Qing court protector army, Tulai, was busy saying Duoduo and said: "Lord, my Qing Dynasty iron cavalry is invincible, why don't you take advantage of the situation to break through the Ming army in one fell swoop and embrace the city of Hangzhou, so a great success!" ”

Duoduo observed the large formation of the Ming army outside the city, and saw that the formation was strict and there were chariots to protect him, so he couldn't help frowning, and sighed: "This king is late!" Wang Shiheng is prepared, and his soldiers and horses are heavier than our army, so I am afraid that he will not be able to break it. ””

Duoduo went south, and had lost nearly 10,000 Eight Banner soldiers, which was already a great loss for the Manchu Puer clan, and he did not dare to consume the strength of the Eight Banners, coupled with the fear of Wang Yan in his heart, he lost the courage to fight.

"Ten miles back!" At that moment, Duoduo waved his hand, and then turned his horse's head and said: "Let's set up camp first, wait for Li Chengdong and other troops to come, and make plans!" ”

There are tens of thousands of cavalry, and the galloping momentum of 10,000 horses is far more powerful and oppressive than that of nearly 10,000 infantry troops.

Lu Fan and others who watched the battle on the city wall had never seen 20,000 cavalry galloping on horseback, the dust covered the sky, and the earth trembled.

Seeing that a big battle was about to start, everyone in the city saw that the northern cavalry suddenly changed from the front team to the rear team, slowly turned, and slowly retreated from the front of the Ming army, in the direction when they came and went, and they couldn't help but be surprised.

"Haha~" Seeing this, Lu Fan's fear of the Northern Cavalry just now couldn't help but be swept away, and he said happily: "This Northern Prisoner is afraid of General Wang's prestige, and he doesn't dare to fight!" ”

When Ma Shiying on the side heard this, he couldn't help but turn pale when he saw that Lu Fan valued Wang Yan so much.

The cavalry came and went like the wind, and after a few moments, it was gone.

At that time, after Wang Yan waited for all the people to enter the city, he also led the soldiers and horses into Hangzhou.

From Yangzhou to Hangzhou, walking for more than ten days, worrying that the northern captives would suddenly chase after him, and now entering Jiancheng, Wang Yan's heart was suddenly settled.

Soon after entering the city, Wang Yan led many subordinates and went to the Lu Wangfu Dynasty to meet the prison state.

In the hall, Lu Fan saw it, and immediately rejoiced, so that people were given a seat to set up tea, and Ma Shiying, Ruan Dacheng, etc. were also seated.

"The general is in Hangzhou, this sky will descend to help the king clean up the rivers and mountains!" Seeing Wang Yan forcing back the Duoduo soldiers, Lu Fan already regarded Wang Yan as an arm to rely on, "Now that the king wants to keep the ancestral inheritance, what can the general teach the king?" ”

Wang Yan heard Lu Fan's question, and after thinking about it, he saluted and said: "Supervise the country, the minister thinks that it is the priority of the moment, only use talents, collect people's hearts, break the old ways, follow the royal road, stabilize the hearts of the army and the people, and don't start party fighting!" ”

"The general's words are reasonable, and the spirit is auspicious, and if the family is not in harmony, nothing can be done." Lu Fan thought it was true when he heard this, and then looked at Ma Shiying on the side and said: "Today's affairs, this king has to rely on the general more, and the major affairs in the court and China will be entrusted to the general and Ma Fu to think about it." ”

Thanks to Tang Doudou 123, I am getting farther and farther away in my dream.
