Chapter 70: The Murderous Great Shun Army

Although it was concluded that the Dashun army would not attack with all its might, Yang Lin did not dare to be careless, on the one hand, he strengthened his vigilance and actively prepared for war, and on the other hand, he sent scouts to inquire about the news.

Dashun Sichuan Festival made Li Yutian, the general soldier Ma Ketong Liaodong soldiers and horses more than 10,000 people enter the Sichuan, in less than a month to expand more than 1,000 miles, occupy more than a dozen prefectures and counties in Baoning Mansion and Shunqing Prefecture, and the progress is so smooth that Li Yutian and Ma Ke probably did not expect.

After entering Sichuan, the Dashun army divided into two routes, all the way down the Jinniu Road, took Pingwu County to the CD post station and went down, now occupying Mianzhou, approaching the CD.

The other road came along the Baoning Mansion to the CD Station, and after arriving in Xichong County, the deputy general Luo Dai led his troops to occupy Shunqing City.

After capturing Shunqing City, Ma Ke left his lieutenant general Luo Dai to lead a line of troops and horses to garrison, and personally led the main force to occupy Mianzhou five days ago.

Although this Luo Dai was born in a rogue, he can have hundreds of Liaodong soldiers and horses left by Ma Ke under his account, and the strong soldiers in the world at the end of the Ming Dynasty should be Liaodong soldiers and horses, and now for the first time to play against it, Yang Lin has to be cautious.

August 20, that is, the deadline given last time, She Yiyuan came as promised, swaggered into the lobby, and found that Zhizhou had changed from an old man to a young scholar, and the whole person was in a good mood, arched his hand and said: "Ten days ago, the old man came, you wait to ask for some time to think about it, I don't know how to think about it now?" ”

Yang Lin smiled and said: "Mr. She, this official is only a prisoner born, although he was elected by the squires to temporarily take charge of Pengzhou affairs, but his virtue is shallow and difficult to meet the expectations of the public.

The matter of submission is related to the lives of tens of thousands of people in Hezhou, and it needs to be cautious.

I hope that the gentleman will be able to give him more grace so that he can convince the squires below. ”

Wiping the beads of sweat on his face, She Yiyuan was quite annoyed, and said with a threat in his words: "My emperor has been invincible in the world for more than ten years, this time he sent troops to conquer the Ming Dynasty, and fought for more than 2,000 miles, and the Ming Dynasty collapsed in less than 100 days.

The matter of surrender has been delayed again and again, is it not that there will be no tears when you don't see the coffin, if you wait for my army to arrive, the jade will be burned. ”

Changshi Chen Huaixi said with a smile: "The Dashun army has indeed made great achievements, but since the capture of the Beijing division in late March, there has been no news in May?"

The four festivals made Li Yutian no longer lead his troops to the front line since he entered Boryeong Mansion. Mr. She, you are the military advisor of the Dashun Army (hold), what is the reason for this? ”

She Yiyuan's voice trembled, recently it was rumored in the army that the emperor was defeated by the Tartars and withdrew from the Beijing Division, such a confidential matter is only known to the generals in the army, does this unattractive Xiucai in front of him also know?

In order to deter the other party, She Yiyuan threatened, claiming that if he did not return to obedience, he would definitely kill a piece of armor.

Standing on the city tower and seeing She Yiyuan disappear in front of them, everyone was quite uneasy in their hearts, it was normal for the ancient news to be closed and not know the situation of the Dashun army, but today Yang Lin's words were conclusive, and everyone couldn't help but believe it.

Yang Lin didn't dare to be sloppy, on the one hand, he strengthened his vigilance, sent scouts to investigate deeply, and on the other hand, he dispatched troops to guard against a sneak attack by the Dashun army.

Back in Shunqing City, She Yiyuan met with the deputy general Luo Dai and talked about the surrender, and everyone was furious.

In particular, Shunqing Zuo garrison Chen Yingrui was even more new and old, and he came out to ask for battle: "General, this Yang Lin likes to be clever, and he has grudged with the last general many times in the past, and this time he is even playing the general in public, and the last general is not talented, and he is willing to lead the troops to the conquest." ”

Luo Dai seemed quite hesitant, since entering Sichuan, the headquarters has only 2,000 soldiers and horses, and after the occupation of Shunqing, follow-up reinforcements have not arrived, and now it can only maintain local order.

It was rumored in the army that Emperor Li Zicheng's Shanhaiguan army had now withdrawn from the Beijing Division, and Li Yutian believed that Fang Jin's fierce enemy was Zhang Xianzhong's Great Western Army, and the remnants of the Ming Dynasty needed to be appeased and should not start a war lightly.

As soon as he saw that his Chen Yingrui was going to come from behind, the old department of the Dashun Army seemed quite unconvinced, especially the general Bu Ning.

Although Bu Ning is only a small general, it can be said that he has been in battle for a long time, and has been under the account of the Cao Wenzhao Department, Sun Shoufa Department, and Sun Chuanting Department of the official army, starting from the horseman, fighting for more than ten years, more than 100 battles, and being promoted to the general because of his merits, but at the end of last year, the official army of Tongguan was wiped out and captured, and returned to the Dashun army.

Bu Ning has 400 soldiers and horses, and the most powerful is more than 100 cavalry, because he has worked as a horseman and a personal soldier under the edict of Cao Wen, who is known as the first good general in the late Ming Dynasty, and his department has a legacy of the old times.

The more than 100 cavalry were well-equipped, with forty of them able to shoot arrows freely on horseback, and the others were equipped with three-eyed guns, which made them very strong on the battlefield. (Although the horse tide cavalry of the earth tyrant is also quite strong, only a few people can ride and shoot, so the combat power is greatly reduced)

Luo Dai was overjoyed, and ordered Chen Yingrui to be the main general and Bu Ning's deputy general, and led his troops to attack Pengzhou.

After leaving the city, seeing that the Shunqing soldiers were untidy and procrastinating, Bu Ning was quite contemptuous in his heart, and he didn't open his mouth and said: "Garrison, this Pengzhou soldier is just a local regiment training, and its department should be inferior to your department." ”

Although Chen Yingrui was quite annoyed in his heart, he thought of the enmity between Yang Lin, and still admonished: "General Bu, although this Yang Lin is very domineering, he is indeed a military training wizard.

A few months ago, the old man went to the department to observe and train, although there were no cavalry in the department, but the lineup was neat, well-trained, and the military discipline was strict, and he should not be under your department. ”

Bu Ning laughed when he heard this, and immediately boasted that he could defeat the Pengzhou soldiers with the four hundred soldiers and horses under his command.

Bu Ning is so arrogant, the ministry does not stay anxious on the road, Chen Yingrui is worried about the loss, although he ordered the departments to speed up, but the strength of the two departments is very different, the Bu Department marched more than 50 miles a day, and the Ministry of the Ministry of Fortune desperately chased only more than 30 miles.

Bu Ning rushed forward like this, in addition to wanting to show off his troops and horses, he was worried about the army looting.

Since the establishment of the capital Xi'an, Li Zicheng accepted the ministers' admonition to strictly enforce military discipline and not to plunder, and killed several generals for this purpose.

Although the place of the local rioters in recent years is not very peaceful, but the Ming Dynasty has been peaceful for more than 270 years, coupled with the industrious duty of the Chinese people, the local economy has been restored, and the side of the ditch above the flat dam is full of farmers, even in some slightly flat places on the mountain are also cultivated and farmed.
