Gao Yihuan returned to the palace, listened to Zhao Zhuzi's words, and was slightly stunned, could it be that the Qing army finally withdrew?

Inspecting the weapons workshop today, on the whole, Gao Yihuan is still quite satisfied.

Although the production is limited, after all, the shelves have been erected, and the three workshops of weapons, firearms, and armor have already started, so as long as more craftsmen are trained in the future, and then think about what technology can be used, the output will be increased sooner or later.

At this time, the second brother Gao was in a good mood, and while walking inside, he said with a smile: "Let Gao Yicheng come to see me." ”

Not long after, the second brother Gao returned to his public house, and as soon as he sat down, Gao Yicheng walked in and gave Gao Yihuan a salute, "Second brother, I have something to report to you." ”

"Yicheng, you're running around outside, it's hard work." Gao Yihuan smiled and stretched out his hand to sit him down, "When you come back this time, do you want to tell me that the Tartars have left Shandong?" ”

If the second brother Gao is not mistaken, the Qing army entered the Kou Pass for the sixth time, and after staying in Shandong for more than half a year, it seems that it was in May and June this year, returning to the outside of the pass and returning with a full load.

Now that the strategic goal of the Qing army's entrance battle has been achieved, Li Zicheng defeated Sun Chuanting and occupied Guanzhong Henan, and the Qing army has no reason to be caught between Li Zicheng and the official army, and it is time to withdraw.

Gao Yihuan looked at Gao Yicheng with a smile, ready to accept Gao Yicheng's admiration, praising him for being like a god and an unpredictable prophet, but he didn't want Gao Yicheng to shake his head, "Second brother, the Qing army hasn't left yet, and is attacking Linqingli." I rushed back in a hurry this time, because I found a fighter plane and wanted to tell my second brother. ”

"Haven't left yet?" Gao Yihuan's face was stunned, how could he not have left?

Gao Yihuan didn't know, because last year he asked Gao Yitong to inform the Ming army that the Qing army might enter Shandong, so that the Shandong government had a certain amount of preparation. After learning that the Qing army had entered the Kou, the third division of Shandong immediately decided to abandon Jinan, which had been slaughtered once, and moved to Dongchang, Linqing and other places, and the Qing army still attacked the provincial capital first, so it gave the Shandong prefectures that had already been prepared more time to prepare for defense.

Since Huang Taiji took power, the Qing army has entered the Kou Pass six times, Xuanda, Beizhi, and Shandong have robbed several times, and this time the Qing army did not go to the farther area to loot, Shandong was robbed only a few years ago, and it has not been restored, and this time Shandong has also made preparations, and the capture of the Qing army is naturally very limited.

And it was the lack of seizure that prevented Abatai from immediately retreating outside the border after achieving his strategic goals.

Gao Yihuan frowned slightly, he didn't understand why the Qing army was still in Shandong, if they didn't leave, they should face Li Zicheng.

"Second brother, Abatai has transferred the main forces of the Qing army to fight Linqing, it seems that the city will not be broken and will not rest, I think the Qing army will not leave for the time being."

"What do you mean when you say you've found a fighter?" Gao Yihuan didn't think about whether the Qing army could leave or not, but raised his head and asked.

"Second brother, that's it. When I went to Shandong to inquire about the news, I rescued a Jinyi Wei Xiaoqi, and I got some information about Shandong from him, and found that the Tartars were unsaddled and grazed on the west bank of Nanwang Lake, where there were 8,000 war horses and many livestock, but only 1,600 people were guarding them. ”

Speaking of this, Gao Yicheng became excited, "Second brother, Nanwang Lake is in the east of Caozhou, and Caozhou and Guide are close to each other. Let's kill from Guide, kill him, and rob the Tartar's war horse, how about it? ”

"Only 1,600 people looking at 8,000 war horses?" Gao Yihuan couldn't believe it when he heard this, "Are you sure there are no Tartar soldiers around?" Is this news reliable, what about the Jinyi Wei Colonel? ”

"Second brother, you can rest assured, the news is indeed correct, I have explored the surroundings, and there are no Tartar soldiers. The main forces of the Tartars have gone to fight Linqing" Gao Yicheng explained: "That Jinyiwei Colonel broke out of Linqing, was chased by the Tartars and fell into the water, and was rescued by me, and now he is going to Dongchang to move the rescue troops to Linqing." ”

If the news is true, it is indeed an opportunity for the second brother Gao.

Gao Yihuan was silent for a while, then got up from his seat, hurriedly walked to a map in the room, looked at it, and then turned his head and asked, "Where is Nanwang Lake?" ”

"Here!" Gao Yicheng looked at the map and pointed it out.

Gao Yihuan looked at it, it was indeed very close to Guide, but the Tartar cavalry was not easy to provoke, in case he was caught up, the second brother Gao estimated that he was afraid that he would be killed by the Tartars if he sent as much as he wanted.

The war horse that grabbed the Tartars, just thinking about it, Gao Yihuan felt very excited.

Such a dangerous thing must be planned and calculated carefully.

At this time, he stared at the map and saw that Nanwang Lake was on the west bank of the Grand Canal, and Guide was south of the Yellow River, that is to say, if he started Nanwang Lake, he had to run across the Yellow River before the Tartars caught up with him, so that he could escape.

"Which Tartar is guarding the war horses?" Gao Yihuan was already a little tempted.

If the main force of the Qing army is really in Linqing, then according to the distance, as long as there is no accident, when the Qing army reacts and sends cavalry to chase and kill him, he should have crossed the Yellow River and returned to Germany.

"Second brother, it is guarded by 1,000 Mongolian foreign vassals and 600 blue-armored Han soldiers." After Gao Yicheng finished speaking, he looked at Gao Yihuan with some expectation, eight thousand war horses, and other livestock, the temptation was too great.

Gao Yihuan groaned for a while, and suddenly shouted outward: "Let Zhao Zhuzi come to see me."

Zhao Zhuzi was in the ya, and after a while, he walked into the house quickly, and saluted, "Second brother is looking for me!" ”

Gao Yihuan nodded and instructed him: "I am going to Shandong to do something big, and I need to take thousands of elite soldiers with me." In this way, the round battle of Suiping is what worries me the most. I'm afraid that when I transfer the elite soldiers away, there will be problems in Suiping, so for the sake of safety, you should go over and inform Jin Xiangang now, let him cut off Liu Hongqi's food, and force the mountain bandits to surrender as soon as possible. ”

In the round battle, the bandits fought more and more, but their lives were always in the hands of Gao Yihuan.

The cottage has long been exhausted, and the food of the bandits depends on him. Gao Yihuan only prepared three days of food for the bandits at a time, and let them go down the mountain to rob them by themselves, as long as he no longer provided food for the mountain, let the bandits have high skills, and they would be defeated in less than seven days.

Zhao Zhuzi listened and wanted to inquire about what the big deal was, but when he saw Gao Yihuan's serious expression, he first hugged his fists and said, "Second brother, don't worry, I'll go right away." ”

Gao Yihuan turned his head to look at Gao Yicheng again, "If this thing can be done, it must be cooperated by Liu Heizi." Yicheng, you go to Guide to see Liu Heizi and reveal a little to him, but don't say it all. If he is interested, you can ask him to prepare a batch of boats for me, and if there are no boats, prepare some rafts. If he doesn't agree, you have to come back and tell me as soon as possible~"

"Second brother, then I'll go over right away!"

Gao Yihuan waited for the two of them to leave, and couldn't help but walk back to the map and began to ponder~
