After the city gate was breached, Liu Zongmin had become a turtle in the urn, and was finally tied up directly by Sun Kewang.

Seeing that I had arrived, Liu Zongmin begged me again, crying with snot flowing, without the style of a general.

I grabbed him by the hair and said sharply, "I have given you opportunities again and again, but you can't grasp it yourself, what is the use of you begging me now!" ”

With that, I shouted and cut off his head with a single sword.

Seeing this, Princess Changping was frightened and hid behind Zheng Gongcheng, dragging Zheng Chenggong's clothes to death.

In this way, Chuzhou City was easily taken by me.

After taking Chuzhou, the army rested for a while and prepared to continue north.

At this moment, Princess Changping came to me and told me about her misfortune.

Originally, I wasn't interested in what happened to her, but when I heard her tell me that Wu Sangui was still holding Chongzhen's three princes, Lao Tzu couldn't sit still for a moment.

You know, if Wu Sangui detains those three brutes, once I attack Beijing, he can completely take out those three brutes as shields, and then I will have to trouble again.

But now I can't care so much, the first thing to do is the Northern Expedition.

If Wu Sangui really used those three brutes to blackmail me at that time, I would only have to kill my relatives with righteousness, and those three brutes were not my species anyway.

After I appeased Princess Changping, I proposed to let her go back to Fuzhou first.

As a result, she actually told me that she wanted to go north with me, and said that she wanted to kill Li Zicheng and avenge her biological mother, Queen Zhou.

When I heard this, I thought that Empress Zhou was dead.

As a result, Princess Changping told me that not only did Queen Zhou not die, but also became Li Zicheng's crotch.

When I heard this, I couldn't help but sigh.

I have to say that Chongzhen's fate is too tragic, not to mention that his wife and children were forcibly occupied by others, and his body was forcibly occupied by my buddies.

Although Princess Changping wanted to go on the Northern Expedition with me, it was really inconvenient to take her with her, and in the end I still had her sent back to Fuzhou.

……

After settling Princess Changping, the army continued to move north, and within half a month, even Kehuai'an, Suzhou, and then took the important town of Xuzhou. At the same time, Zheng Chenggong led the sailors and also captured Haining County. The whole of Jiangsu was recovered by me again.

On the other side, Liu Wenxiu waved his army north, and had already taken Hanzhong, pointing at Xi'an; Mu Tianbo and Zhang Zhao also broke through Xiangyang and Jingzhou one after another, and were clearing out the thieves who were guarding Wuchang; Li Dingguo and Zuo Liangyu strengthened the Yangtze River, and the thieves in Anhui could only retreat to the city of Luzhou.

After these battles, the Fourth Route Army advanced steadily, and the vast area south of the Yangtze River was basically taken by me.

Seeing such a situation, I was overjoyed, and I felt that it was only a matter of time before the Ming Dynasty was restored.

As the saying goes, "It is advisable to chase the poor bravely, not to sell the name of the overlord", I did not take credit for myself, and even stopped moving, but continued to advance northward.

Under my leadership, the army left Jiangsu and officially entered Shandong.

In Shandong, the thieves resisted the Ming army to the death, and the Ming army fought for more than ten days in Tai'an City alone.

When attacking Jinan Mansion, the Ming army was extremely difficult, and carried out dozens of encirclement and counter-encirclement and suppression with the anti-thieves, and it took a month to take it.

When I took Jinan Mansion, Li Dingguo also occupied the whole of Anhui, so I prepared to join me in Jinan Mansion, and then cross the Yellow River and take Beijing directly.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, Xiaozhuang, who had not been seen for a long time, suddenly came to Jinan Mansion by sea.

I was quite surprised to see her visit suddenly, because according to the time calculation, there were still more than three months before Xuan Ye's kid took the antidote for the second time.

Since there is still such a long time, what is that slut from Xiaozhuang coming to me for?

While I was amazed, the guards led her into my tent.

Seeing her coming, I opened my mouth and asked, "Queen Mother, there are still three months before Xuan Ye takes medicine, what are you doing to find me?" ”

The slut in Xiaozhuang said with a smile: "I came this time, not for Xuanye, but for the Qing Dynasty!" ”

When I heard this, I looked confused, and asked, "Daqing?" The Qing soldiers are strong and strong, what can they do? ”

Xiaozhuang did not answer me immediately, but said to his eunuchs: "Come, dedicate our 'Manchurian Three Treasures' to the emperor!" ”

Forehead......

What is the rhythm of this Nima?

Before, she either called me Chongzhen, or called me the king of the Southern Dynasty, but now she actually calls me the emperor, and she wants to offer me the "Three Treasures of Manchuria", I was directly confused.

When the eunuch heard her words, he gave me three gift boxes.

I opened it and saw that the so-called "Three Treasures of Manchuria" was actually the current "Three Treasures of the Northeast" - ginseng, mink, and Ula grass!

These three things, in the current view, are not worth much at all.

But in the Ming Dynasty, these things were really weighty, and they belonged to the national rites of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

After I put away the "Three Treasures of Manchuria", I said: "What is the so-called thing that the Queen Mother sent such a heavy gift to me? ”

At this time, the slut of Xiaozhuang said: "The emperor doesn't know, originally my Manchurian Eight Banner Army was ready to take Shanhaiguan in one fell swoop, but I didn't expect Wu Sangui to suddenly go north, and played a tactic that my Eight Banner Army has never seen." Not only did my army not occupy Shanhaiguan, but also lost two important cities, Jinzhou and Panzhou! ”

When I heard this, I was stunned, I didn't expect this to happen at all.

You must know that with the ability of the army of the Eight Banners of Manchuria, Wu Sangui held the Shanhai Pass at most, how could he cross the Shanhai Pass and connect the two cities of the Manchu Dynasty.

Even if Wu Sangui used the "Fireball Array", it would be impossible to do it. Because the "fireball array" itself is not aggressive, it can only be regarded as an auxiliary formation in marching and fighting.

Thinking of this, I asked her if Wu Sangui used the "Fireball Array", and she told me that Wu Sangui did not use the "Fireball Array" at all, but used another formation.

When I heard this, I was even more surprised.

At this time, the slut of Xiaozhuang said: "Your Majesty, Wu Sangui is about to enter Shengjing, I came this time in the hope that the emperor can help me in the Qing Dynasty and drag Wu Sangui from the rear!" ”

No way! I almost didn't laugh out loud when I heard that.

You know, before this, I have always knelt down and begged the Manchu to help the Ming Dynasty, but I didn't expect that now the situation has reversed, and the slut of Xiaozhuang actually took the initiative to come to the door and beg me.

While this is a great thing, it is not a good thing from another point of view.

Think about it, Wu Sangui can deal with the Manchurian Eight Banners Army, then he will bite me in turn, and I may not be able to do it.

However, since the slut of Xiaozhuang begged me, and I was going to go on a northern expedition, I said in a difficult way: "If you want to ask me to help you drag Wu Sangui, I can't help it." Now that my Ming army and financial resources are insufficient in all aspects, I only want to consolidate the lost territory I have just recovered, and as for the Northern Expedition, I have to put it behind! ”

Seeing me say this, the slut of Xiaozhuang stood up, pounced directly on me, and said hypocritically: "Your Majesty, I see that you have something to say." With the current strength of the Ming army, I believe that within ten days, we will be able to cross the Yellow River! ”

I smiled and said, "It's really easy to cross the Yellow River, but it's not so easy to hold Wu Sangui back." Even your Eight Banners Army can't stop him, so how can my Ming Army endure him? What's more, the Ming army now lacks money and food for the Northern Expedition! ”

Hehe, as I spoke, I touched her hand. This slut doesn't dodge at all, just let me touch it.

In the end, she said heartily: "I understand what the emperor meant." The emperor can say what he wants, including me! ”

Nima, I almost didn't throw up when I heard this. This slut is disgusting.

Although she does have a bit of charm, I don't care about men and women anymore, I want the world.

I pinched her and said, "You better accompany Dol, there is no shortage of women around me." However, since you asked me what I wanted, I will not hide it from you, and according to the agreement signed between the Ming Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty last year, you will return the coins and horses contributed by the Ming Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty to me, and I will immediately cross the Yellow River and contain Wu Sangui! ”

She hesitated for a while, and finally said, "Okay, I promise you!" ”

Saying that, this slut just touched me and made me anxious!
