The land of Gansu was barren, and the Qing army did not attack the big cities, so the supplies obtained were naturally limited.

The 80,000 Qing troops plundered the Yongliang land for nearly a month, and the harvest was not much, and most of the grain was quickly consumed under the chewing of people and horses.

At this time, there were three roads in front of the Qing army, one was to accept it when it was good, and retreat to the grassland first, the second was to pull out a big city and get supplies, and the third was to break into the Guanzhong Plain as soon as possible, where the fertile fields were thousands of miles away and the population was large.

Huining County, Gongchang Prefecture, Gansu Province.

After Ao Bai and Sonny joined forces in Lanzhou Prefecture, the army turned southwest and entered Gongchang Prefecture, where it defeated Huining County, which had only 300 defenders and 1,000 young and strong guards, and the army was temporarily stationed there.

Around the small city, it has been surrounded by the company camps of the Qing army, and as far as the eye can see, there is a white military tent, which is difficult to count.

At this time, a group of Tartar cavalry with heads on horses and strings of women returning to the camp entered the camp.

Naked and twisted corpses of women were discarded around the camp, and from time to time in the tents, the screams and begs for mercy of women were heard, accompanied by lewd laughter.

In the hall of the county government in the city, a stove was set up, fat sheep were roasted, and the generals of the Qing army gathered together to discuss the military situation.

Outside the lobby, a Wei military instructor with his legs broken was pressed to the ground by the Qing army, and the yellow-armored Tartar soldiers were pulling his hair hard, and his hair was torn off together with his scalp, dripping with blood, and the instructor screamed in pain.

The Qing army came to the city, the county ran away, the instructor organized to defend the city, the city was broken and was caught by the Qing army, Ao Bai asked him to kneel and surrender, the instructor was unyielding, angered Ao Bai, Ao Bai let people break his legs, and then pull out his hair, to see how hard the barbarian is.

The screams outside the hall came into the hall one after another, and the Tartar generals with bare scalps and pigtails shaking behind their heads were eating fat sheep with oil, laughing and laughing.

Aobai, who was sitting on the top of the hall, with his bare top exposed, wearing iron armor, his face was full of rude and barbaric atmosphere, he chewed the mutton arrogantly, and sneered at everyone: "When I was in the court, I often heard that the soldiers and horses of the high barbarians were elite and good at fighting, and I saw that they said this purely to cover up their incompetence. As soon as Zhuang Wangye and Su Wangye made a move this time, Gao Manzi didn't care about one or the other, and was played by us. ”

"That is, if Duoduo hadn't been caught by Gao Manzi, I think the prince and they would have entered northern Shaanxi!" The people below laughed.

Most of the people present were the Hauge faction, and the generals of the two yellow flags and the two blue flags who had received the favor of the emperor Taiji had long been very dissatisfied with the Dolgon faction.

When the Qing army first entered the pass, exterminated Li Zicheng, and swept through the north, Dolgon was in full swing, and they could only hibernate, but in the past two years, Dolgon's strategy has frequently made mistakes and his prestige has been greatly damaged, and their dissatisfaction has been directly expressed.

Ao Bai sneered, "It's a matter of time before you enter the Guanzhong." This time, Ben is going to let the wastes of the two white flags take a look, our awesome! ”

"That's right, enter the gate, see what the regent says!" The generals below chimed in.

Sonny said: "The protectors already have a strategy to enter the Guanzhong?" ”

Ao Bai is rough and savage on the outside, like an uncivilized barbarian, and when people stand with him, there will be a fear in their hearts, but he is actually very delicate in his heart.

Then he glanced at the crowd, "This is nature, you are all near, you will have something to say." ”

At the time of the pre-Qin period, the Qin State was a dangerous place for the four stops, the so-called four stops, is: there is Hangu Pass in the east, Dasan Pass in the west, Wuguan in the south, Xiao Pass in the north, and the four passes are called "the land in the pass". If the four levels are consolidated, Qin Wang; If the four passes are lost, Qin will be destroyed.

The reason why Qin built the four places was because as long as he controlled these four places, it would be difficult to enter from other directions.

Either the detour is too far, or the road is difficult, in short, to fight into the pass, the best way to take is to break one of the passes.

The Longshan Mountains lie in the northwest of Guanzhong, which is the northwest barrier of Guanzhong, and Xiaoguan is in the valley lowland of Longshan Pass, choking the main road leading to Guanzhong from Longxi.

In order to prevent the Tartars plundered by Yongliang from entering the pass, the Wei army garrisoned 10,000 troops here, led by the general Hao Shaoqi.

On May 26, a sunny day, the Wei soldiers on the city were busy carrying arrows, wood, stones, fire oil and other things.

On the city wall, firearms such as Hongyi cannons and general cannons are lined up, and soldiers with spears stand next to the firearms, overlooking the gate in the distance.

Suddenly, there was a roar in the valley, and the soldiers who were carrying the supplies couldn't help but stand up one after another, turned their heads to look west, and felt the earth shake slightly, and the valley was covered with yellow dust.

A brigade commander in the city was shocked on his face, and when he saw the billowing yellow dust moving quickly towards the wall, he immediately shouted, "There is an enemy situation!" ”

An alarm bell rang, a large number of Wei soldiers wearing armor, ran up the city wall, Hao Shaoqi also came to the wall, looked out of the pass, and asked a general next to him: "What's the situation?" How many tartars came! ”

The general stretched his face and shook his head, "General, the valley is winding, and you can't see the back, but looking at the momentum, it's at least tens of thousands!" ”

Hao Shaoqi slammed his fist on the wall battlement, "Okay, it's better to come all!" After speaking, he turned his head and shouted: "Hurry up and report to Wang Jing, and the Tartar soldiers will attack Xiao Pass!" ”

Between Shaanxi and Shanxi, there is the Yellow River as the boundary, after the Yellow River bypassed the Loess Plateau, it hit Luliang Mountain, and was forced to divert to the south by the mountain range.

The Yellow River rushes from north to south, and the water flow is turbulent, resulting in the vast majority of river sections between Shaanxi and Shanxi, which cannot cross the river, and is blocked by Luliang Mountain, although Shaanxi and Shanxi are adjacent to each other, it is not convenient to come and go.

The only convenient passage between the two places is Pujindu, which is located in the south.

Out of military needs, but also to facilitate the connection between Shaanxi and Shanxi, as early as the period of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, in Pujindu built a pontoon bridge, to the Tang Dynasty Kaiyuan period, Li Longji in order to further enhance the connection between the two places, ordered the military department to renovate the Pujin pontoon bridge, with heavy iron oxen, iron pillars buried deep on both sides of the bank, and with iron cables as cables, covered with giant trees, to build a permanent fixed pontoon bridge.

The pontoon bridge was damaged several times over the next few hundred years and repaired several times by the government, and it is still alive today.

However, the Qing army and the Western Wei army did not destroy the Pujin pontoon bridge out of consideration for the future, so that the pontoon bridge still connected the two sides of the strait, and prevented it from being attacked by the other side.

On the side of the Qing army, it mainly defended Pujin Pass and Puzhou Mansion to the east of the pontoon bridge, while the Wei army defended Tongzhou Mansion and the bridgehead to the east.

Pujin Pass is located behind Tongguan and is known as "the first key to enter the pass in Hedong and Hebei landways".

At the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, Li Yuan's father and son were able to smoothly lead troops from Taiyuan down into Guanzhong, mainly due to the surrender of the Pujin defenders without a fight.

At present, Pujindu has become a battleground for the Wei and Qing armies, and the Wei army has mastered the pontoon bridge, which will block the Qing army in Shanxi and threaten Taiyuan. The Qing army mastered this place, retreated to protect Shanxi, and entered the customs.

In view of this, Dolgon sent the general Kaqam to sit in the Puzhou capital, garrisoning 10,000 troops to prevent the Wei army from seizing Puzhou, and told him that he must hold the Pujin Pass, ensure the safety of Shanxi, and prepare for the Qing army to attack Guanzhong.
