In addition to Huang Degong's 20,000 horses, as well as Zheng Hongkui's 6,000 people, there are also 3,000 people recruited by Guo Weijing, the incoming governor of Henan, and the 3,000 people recruited by Zuo Maodi, the incoming governor of Shandong, and the 3,000 people of Zhejiang recruited by Zuo Maodi, the incoming governor of Shandong.

Of course, Cao Bianjiao didn't expect to rely on their soldiers and horses, he had to rely on himself, Fengyang originally had 20,000 defenders, more than 40,000 people in his hands, plus Huang Degong's, there were already 80,000 people, and the miscellaneous army added up, it was nearly 100,000, and Gao Jie's men and horses were stationed in Suzhou, and he personally led an army of 100,000 to the Northern Expedition, Cao Bianjiao naturally had confidence.

"Liu Liangzuo's soldiers and horses are stationed in Luzhou, didn't he come?" Cao Bianjiao asked very angrily, this guy, Liu Zeqing has already subdued the law, Gao Jie is also wilted, he still dares to put up a shelf and not come to the teacher, Cao Bianjiao knows the reason, but he is not allowed to do so.

Cheng Tianyi, who has been in charge of information exchange and intelligence collection, also replied helplessly at the moment: "No, I sent someone to urge him three days ago, but Liu Liangzuo said that he suffered from the wind and cold in the spring and summer, and he has never recovered, and he is seriously ill, so please allow the general to lead the army to follow after he recovers." ”

"After he recovers, he can't get better from this disease, unless I die, he will get better, he has a heart disease! Gao Jie and Liu Zeqing are his lessons from the past, but he didn't reflect on it, and dared to play such tricks with me, I really didn't dare to touch him, not to mention that he had 40,000 or 50,000 soldiers and horses, even 100,000, I was not afraid. ”

Cao Bianjiao is not proud, but confident, Liu Liangzuo may have some ability, but he still won't take it seriously.

"Are Liu Liangzuo's soldiers and horses stationed in Lujiang City?" Cao Bianjiao asked.

"Exactly!" Cheng Tianyi replied.

"The Northern Expedition is coming, but you can't catch fire in the backyard when the time comes, you go to Lujiang in person, visit Liu Liangzuo in my name, try to appease him, and I'll solve the rest of the matter!"

"Yes!" Cheng Tianyi didn't know what arrangements Cao Bianjiao would have, but with his understanding of Cao Bianjiao, he would definitely not give up, this was not Cao Bianjiao's style.

Cao Bianjiao is planning the Northern Expedition here, the north at this moment has also undergone great changes, Li Zicheng fled in a hurry, and gave the city of Beijing to the Manchu Qing Dynasty, the third day after Li Zicheng retreated, the Qing army took Wu Sangui as the vanguard, and it was into the Ming capital that they loved the four generations of Xinjueluo wanted to enter but never entered, they had repeatedly led the army to attack before, but it was always rare, but I didn't expect that this time it would be sent by Li Zicheng.

When Wu Sangui appeared in Beijing City wearing Manchu clothes and wearing the rat braid on his head, it immediately caused an uproar, because before that, the voice circulating in Beijing City was that Wu Sangui borrowed troops from the Manchu Qing Dynasty in order to revive the Ming Dynasty and defeated Li Zicheng.

"Wu Sangui is really shameless, he actually surrendered to the Manchu Tartars, look at his face, the Wu family died well, even if Li Zicheng didn't kill them, I am afraid that they will die of shame because of this!"

"That's it! Whether it is the Ming Dynasty or the Great Shun, they are all my sons and daughters of the Central Plains, the Manchu Qing Dynasty is just a barbarian in the northeast, Wu Sanguitian is shameless, it is really contemptible! ”

Like this sneering and cursing, it can be said that there is an endless stream, but everyone will not think about their own problems, when the Ming Dynasty was in danger, where were they, hiding behind the back to watch the joke, and then Li Zicheng entered Beijing, when the autumn did not commit any crimes, it was they who stood up and praised Li Zicheng's benevolence, what is comparable to Yao Shun, the lord of the world, it was also done by these people, and then Li Zicheng was exposed and began to torture and plunder, many people were also affected, or they secretly attacked Li Zicheng, In fact, these people are no different from Wu Sangui, in terms of character, they are just half a catty and eight taels.

Although after Li Zicheng's destruction, but in the city of Beijing, there are still millions of household registrations, the previous ministers of civil and military affairs, and six or seven out of ten are in the city of Beijing, but when Wu Sangui entered Beijing with his people, he saw a piece of chaos, in these few days, no one stood up to clean up the situation, if one person stood up and raised his arms and shouted, the whole people defended themselves, how could this strong and tall Beijing city be self-defeating.

"We have to thank Li Zicheng for this thief, without him, we really don't know when we will be able to enter Beijing, after Emperor Taizong ascended the throne, how many attacks, all in vain, I can't imagine that in the end it was me Dolgon who achieved this great cause!"

Thinking of this, Dolgon couldn't hold back his excitement and excitement, what his father and brother couldn't do, and finally he completed it, and entered the Central Plains, just around the corner.

"The regent is majestic and strategic, throughout the ages, few people can match, Li Zicheng is just a first-class Kou, naturally he can't stop the regent from dominating the world, he Li Zicheng is proud of victory, and he will collapse when he loses, this slight defeat, his first thought is still the same as before!"

"What?" Dorgon asked curiously.

"Drill the ravine! Haha......" Wu Sangui smiled unscrupulously and did not blush, he knew that many people around him cast contemptuous eyes at the moment, but he didn't care, it was just some eyes, what was that, power was what he Wu Sangui longed for the most, the moment he knelt down to Dolgon, he had already given up all his dignity, and everything he had in the future was to fight for power.

"King Pingxi is right, Li Zicheng can't become a big thing after all, even if he has millions of soldiers, so what, after all, he is not my opponent of the Qing Dynasty, we have entered the city of Beijing, the next step is to collect the north of the Yellow River, first defeat Li Zicheng's gang of remnants, after the north is stable, you can spread the name to the south of the Yangtze River, we want to establish the Qing Dynasty is the Mongolian Genghis Khan general cause!"

Although Dolgon understands very well that with the foundation of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, he does not have this strength at all, but bragging is not illegal, and he is also complacent, so he simply let it go and said, it doesn't matter, it is not a national plan, it is just a hearty talk.

"Sangui is willing to open up territory for the Qing Dynasty, liver and brain, regardless of life and death!" Wu Sangui also showed his loyalty in a timely manner.

"King Pingxi is really a loyal and brave person, I'm not mistaken, then this matter of chasing Li Zicheng will be handed over to you, you also want to take revenge, Wu Sangui has killed you all over the house!" Dolgon didn't mind anything, his favorite thing to see was to let the Han army fight the Han people, and he would follow behind to supervise the battle, and the loss was not their elite of the Eight Banners anyway, and he was very happy about it.

"Sangui commands!" At the moment, Wu Sangui also surrendered his order immediately, and accepted this task without hesitation, Li Zicheng killed his whole family, and robbed his beloved Chen Yuanyuan, he was also full of hatred, chasing and killing Li Zicheng, he had no objection.
