Gao Yihuan pondered slightly, but he couldn't, saying who was superior and who was inferior.

The situation in the world is unpredictable, and it is not easy to say what will happen in the future, but at present, it is the consensus between him and Chen Mingxia to contain Dongyu and attack Guanzhong.

Take Jingzhou first, enter Sichuan and Shu, or enter Guanzhong first, this can be decided later, and now we still have to resist Duoduo's army on the southern road first.

Gao Yihuan stood up, "I take Mr.'s teachings to heart. I also asked him to take up the post of shogunate secretary, and I would like to listen to his teachings more. ”

Chen Mingxia smiled and arched his hand, "Dare not obey your fate!" ”

Gao Yihuan has many ministers, but many of them still have a lot of feelings for the Ming Dynasty in their hearts, which makes Gao Yihuan very uncomfortable.

The appearance of this Chen Mingxia has undoubtedly changed the status quo and made it possible for him to have another faction of people to use.

After speaking, Chen Mingxia said: "At the beginning of Li Zicheng's entry into Beijing, he did not trust the senior members of Beijing, and wanted to use Chongzhen's sixteen-year jinshi as an official, so in the same year in Beijing, he was mostly involved in Shun cases and was not appointed by Nanjing. The humble post can write a few letters for the general, inviting Yang Tingjian, Song Zhisheng and others to come over and serve the general. ”

Yang Tingjian is the champion of Song Zhizhi is a role model, Gao Yihuan's heart moved, Lao Tzu is going to gather in Sanyuan!

Gao Yihuan also hoped that Chen Mingxia could recruit talents for him through his relationship with the Jinshi, so he said with a smile, "With Mr. recommending, I will definitely reuse it." ”

That night, the two talked for a long time, and Gao Yihuan asked Chen Mingxia to rest.

Early the next morning, Gao Yicheng got up from the house, ready to explain to Lu Yifang, how to deal with the prisoners, and the matter of setting up officials in Yuncheng, Xuzhou, and Xiangcheng, and then he was going to march north to Rongze, that is, near the ancient Guandu, to join the Shun army deployed along the river.

By the end of July, the news about the north was already very clear.

The Qing army, commanded by Shi Tingzhu and Ye Chen, was attacking Taiyuan, Wu Sangui and Azig were attacking Datong, preparing to enter Guanzhong from northern Shaanxi, and Duoduo led a large army into Henan to attack Tongguan.

After Li Zicheng withdrew from Beijing, he brought Liu Zongmin and others back to Guanzhong, and did not leave enough men and horses to guard Shanxi, which can be said to be a miscalculation.

If there are enough Shun troops in Shanxi, then the Qing army will definitely not dare, and the north and south will outflank Guanzhong, and Li Zicheng will have enough time to prepare for war.

In the final analysis, the Dashun court did not have enough understanding of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and did not regard the Manchu Qing as an opponent in the struggle for the world, and it had not turned a corner strategically.

Because of the mistakes of the grand strategy, the Shun army made frequent mistakes, but fortunately, the unjust killing of Li Yan should not happen again.

In history, after Li Zicheng returned to Guanzhong, Li Yan heard that there were rebellions in various parts of Henan, so he took the initiative to ask Ying, and was willing to personally lead 20,000 elite soldiers to Zhongzhou to deter the localities, so that the counties and counties did not dare to act rashly, even if there were one or two rebels, they could be quickly extinguished.

In this way, Dashun has a great advantage in the strategic location of the land of Central Henan, but Li Zicheng suspected that Li Yan had different intentions, and Niu Jinxing added fuel to the fire, saying that Li Yan saw that Dashun failed and wanted to break away from Dashun and go to Henan to claim the king, so Li Zicheng killed Li Yan and his brother Li Nian together.

Li Zicheng was born in poverty, and the class attributes of the Dashun Army made him distrust Li Yan, a famous family.

At first, he may have been impressed by Li Yan's talent, but as Li Yan's prestige increased, Li Zicheng became terrified in his heart.

In history, Li Yan was killed, and the hearts of the powerful people in Henan were scattered, and they launched rebellions one after another, and Duoduo took the opportunity to enter Henan, drove directly to Tongguan, and attacked Li Zicheng in the north and south with Azig, and finally attacked Guanzhong, making Li Zicheng a lost dog.

At the beginning of this year, Li Yan was released back to Henan by Gao Yihuan, as long as he was not stupid and returned to Guanzhong by himself, history is estimated to not repeat itself.

Now that Li Yan is in Luoyang, Gao Yihuan has suppressed the rebellion, the situation in Henan is generally stable, and the Qing army of Duoduo is not so easy to reach Tongguan.

Gao Yihuan was dressed neatly and came out of the room, ready to wash his face in the courtyard.

At this time, Gao Chengwei hurriedly came into the courtyard and went straight to Gao Yihuan's room, when he saw that Gao Yihuan was not in the room, he was washing his face by the well on the side, so he hurriedly walked over again.

"Dashuai, Luoyang is anxious, and the Tartar spirit rides across the river at Sun's house east of Rongze, and then detours back to Rongze, breaking the white handsome. Now that the Tartar soldiers and horses are approaching the Tiger Prison Pass, Li Jiedu asked the marshal to quickly go north to support. ”

Gao Yihuan just thought that the current situation in Henan was not bad, so he was slapped on the head and beat his heart trembling, "What about the Tartars crossing the river?" ”

Gao Chengwei hurriedly said: "Li Jiedu's people, that's what they said. Bai Dashuai had 30,000 people, only more than 10,000 people, and he withdrew to the Tiger Prison, losing more than 60% of his men and horses, and he was afraid that it would be difficult to hold the Tiger Prison. Li Jiedu asked the marshal to go north, stationed in Zhengzhou, and threatened the Tartars from the flank, preventing the Tartars from going all out. ”

The mother is split, Gao Yihuan heard it and was very annoyed.

Tartar on the north bank of the Yellow River and on the south bank are two completely different concepts.

According to the news obtained by Gao Yihuan, Duoduo's Southern Route Army has at least 40,000 people, and most of them are real Tartars.

Gao Yihuan threw away the towel, "Quick, order the army to pack up and march to Zhengzhou in an hour!" ”

Outside Yuncheng, a drizzle came unexpectedly, the fields and ditches on both sides of the official road were full of rainwater, and the dense forests and mountains in the distance were hazy.

On the official road leading to Zhengzhou, a group of soldiers, wearing hats, shoes hanging from their necks, and stepping barefoot in the mud, advanced northward.

The soldiers and cavalry, walking on both sides of the official road, on the ridges on both sides, are also a large army heading north.

In the middle of the road, there were artillery wagons covered with tarpaulins, carts loaded with straw and fodder, and baggage carts laden with grain, which creaked north with their axles, driven by mules, horses, and men.

On a small hill next to the official road, nearly 100 cavalrymen wearing hats, robes, and sturdy horses were watching the army to the north.

Gao Yihuan clenched the reins of the horse with one hand, looked at the people and horses on the official road, and felt anxious in his heart, Duoduo was in a tiger prison, if Bai Wang was defeated again, Luoyang was afraid that it would not be safe. In this way, there will be no obstacle for the Qing army to attack Tongguan.

Gao Yihuan looked at the army for a while, he had to rush to Zhengzhou as soon as possible, contain Duoduo from the flank, and then immediately said to Lu Yifang, who saw him off: "The Tartar soldiers crossed the Yellow River, and eastern Henan thought it was a flat river. The Qing army had no supplies, and Duoduo would follow behind him if he stood firm, and he would inevitably collect food everywhere. Kaifeng has long been barren, and the small horse army of Tatar soldiers to collect food is very likely to come south. The land of Xuzhou, we can't hold it, so don't set up officials, order the people to go south as soon as possible, clear the wilderness, retreat to Yuncheng, keep Runing, and temporarily avoid the Tartar edge. ”
