In June, the capital was suddenly cold and snowy, and it was really a snowy wonder!

Li Zicheng was in charge of the department, and he moved to the border pass, at the time of the fake attack. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info suddenly gave up more than 100,000 cannon fodder troops and turned into the forest.

Swept through the Daimyo's Mansion, Shunde Mansion, and strictly forbidden.

The city is turbulent, and the thieves are coming, and Queen Zhang immediately ordered: "The capital is more than fortified, and there are four sets of reinforcements with the army. Why is it difficult to eradicate it? Those who dare to make false remarks to confuse the public will be arrested and will participate in the Fa-rectification, affecting the whole family, and will be severely punished. ”

That is to say, now start the capital to defend with all its might, and wait for the support from that side after the national war, who dares to confuse the morale of the army and kill your whole family!

I have to say that Li Zicheng is also cunning and cunning.

Dolgon wanted Li Zicheng and the Ming army to fight for both defeats first, and then sit back to reap the benefits of the fishermen.

As a result, Li Zicheng now let the Ming army fight with Dolgon first, and he came to attack the capital of the Ming Kingdom directly, a general.

Of course, it can make him unprepared.

It is also because of the attack of the Later Jin Dynasty, otherwise, with him Li Zicheng alone, even if he is given hundreds of thousands of cannon fodder, it is impossible to suddenly attack and attack near the Beijing Division.

A few days later, the thieves Kexiong County, Wen'an, and Jinghaiduo County. The counties south of the capital division, the wind collapsed, and the officials either surrendered or fled!

To be honest, in fact, at the beginning, Li Zicheng never thought of becoming an emperor.

I never thought of attacking the capital so quickly!

However, in this turbulent, strange and war-torn era. Even between the rogues, there is also competition, and more attention is paid to popularity.

What did he rely on Li Zicheng to develop into a million troops now with only a few dozen junior brothers remaining for the second time. (Of course, more than half of it is cannon fodder, so let's not talk about it for now.) ）

Every time at this time, when Li Zicheng thinks about his first situation, he feels like he understands.

I think that back then, when he defeated Shangluoshan for the first time, there were only thirteen cavalry soldiers left around him, and there was no money and grain reserves. However, it doesn't matter. But after he came out of the mountain, there were thousands of younger brothers, bringing their own dry food and beautiful women, and called his eldest brother to come and defect.

In just a few months, he is the first tyrant of the Central Plains again. Although he later failed miserably, the reason why he succeeded in becoming strong quickly at that time was actually simple!

is him, Li Zicheng is well-known, and he is a figure of the same level as Zhang Xianzhong, who has been hung up.

At this moment, he just wanted to agree to Houjin's coalition request and fish in troubled waters. At the same time, I also want to take this opportunity to make a name for the next level.

For example, attacking the capital of the Ming Dynasty.

Regardless of whether you can beat it down afterwards, as long as you dare to fight and make some achievements, it will be enough.

And he's a bit of a success now.

Because he has snatched the last section of the canal leading to the capital.

This section of the canal can be described as an extremely important place. The Grand Canal connected the north and south and became the economic lifeblood of the country, and after the Yongle Emperor Zhu Di moved the capital to Beijing, Tianjin gradually became the southeast gateway of Beijing.

Taking advantage of the limelight, Li Zicheng laid down Tianjin a few days later.

Tianjin, referred to as Tianjin, is also known as Tianjin Wei, which means the place where the Son of Heaven crossed, and is also known as Jingu, Jinmen, etc. It is bordered by the Bohai Sea in the east and Yanshan Mountain in the north.

"Wei" is a military establishment of the Ming Dynasty, which is led by the commander and directly subordinate to the Houjun Governor's Office. There are 5,600 soldiers per guard, and 16,800 soldiers are included in Tianjin.

It's a pity that most of these more than 10,000 people are empty, so how can they have combat effectiveness?

At this moment, under the walls of Tianjin, there are piles of corpses that have not yet been buried. The walls were covered with scars, and most of the brick and timber towers and houses outside the walls were burned down.

The barren fields next to the canal are full of tents of all kinds.

In one of the most luxurious tents of the Chinese army, Li Zicheng hugged a few beautiful ladies from official families and kept kissing them.

Gyeonggi has a food shortage, and he intends to sweep the surrounding provinces first, and then bring in more cannon fodder, in order to have a greater chance when he finally attacks the capital. At the same time, it is also good to wait for Houjin and Ming Jun to separate the winners and losers, and then make the final plan.

And in this situation, in fact, even if Zhu Zilong and the others do not return to the division, it stands to reason that the troops of the surrounding cities and the Daming Jing Division are also capable of fighting Li Zicheng.

Why, but it turns out that no one can fight?

It turned out that this had to be talked about with Li Zicheng's other cooperation with Houjin.

Why did he, Li Zicheng, break through the Xuanfu border pass first? It is to lay a way back for Houjin cooperation, and to slaughter the rich people in the Mongolian merchant market first, and provoke new hatred between the Ming Dynasty and some Mongolian tribes.

So, after making a fortune and leaving, he successfully made the border pass have a crisis, and he had to rebuild it.

Therefore, Li Zilong's Zhu family army, which has tens of thousands of troops, has to rest and recuperate, and has to help restore the border pass and defend a little, and there are a lot of troubles.

On the other hand, around Tianjin, the only army with some combat effectiveness.

The grain and grass were embezzled by corrupt officials, and Cao Wenzhao, a general and deputy commander-in-chief, was very helpless about this.

His Eastern Route Army, the grain and grass carried by the army was not sufficient, and he was hungry and full. I just hope that when I am under the capital city, I can have a full meal.

Who knows, even this small wish cannot be fulfilled because of the actions of corrupt officials!

The surplus grain and grass in the army can only allow the soldiers to eat one meal of porridge every day. In the past few days, they have begun to eat tree bark, and it is simply a grassland for the Eighth Route Army of later generations in advance!

I finally ran to the county town that was not broken by the thieves, and planned to buy food. But the local magistrate also refused to provide grain and grass on the grounds that there was no food in the city, and beat the messenger out with a stick!

There are so many dead officials, and Comrade Xiao Cao is angry.

This kind of attitude of Ming officials who "want the horses to run and refuse to give the horses grazing" is really rare to see in a century. But in the late Ming Dynasty, except for some places under Zhu Zilong's control, there were basically infinite strange officials.

Since the grain and grass were running out and the salary and silver were not settled, his 50,000 Eastern Route Army, even if he knew that Li Zicheng was attacking Tianjin.

It is also in the spirit of Lao Tzu to see how you officials died, and under this semi-vindictive mentality, sit idly by.

…………

On the Tangshan side, Zhu Zilong, Hong Chengchou and others were also entangled.

As soon as this has some results, the whole army will not be able to return to the division?

In that way, Houjin made a comeback, and Li Zicheng attacked from behind, so wasn't it a two-sided enemy?

Especially Zhu Zilong, his Zhu family's army can be said to be fighting on all sides. Some of the North Korean ones are on the battlefield of attacking Shanhaiguan. The second part was guarding the pass and waiting for the opportunity in the Xuanfu, and the third part was the weakest, but it had to hold Shandong and other canal places, and also be careful of Li Zicheng.

In the end, it was brought by himself, and he was here with part of the Zhu family army in the Houjin War.

TM's, it's three heads and six arms, and it's also very busy at this time!

However, fortunately, the Qing army is probably also struggling with the issue of staying and staying, and everyone is uncomfortable.

Although Dolgon used a strategy to take Shanhaiguan, he was not very at ease with the half of the Guanning army that had just returned, and to some extent had the idea of sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight.

As for whether he can capture the Jingshi of the Ming Dynasty this time, he doesn't have any idea of what he is going to do.

I just feel that with Li Zicheng's cooperation, I haven't come to rob for many years, and I have a great chance of success if I take revenge or something. If you can hurt Zhu Jiajun's vitality by the way, it will be even more perfect.

It's a pity that now there is a big injury to the vitality, but it seems to be himself.

Right now, if Zhu Zilong's coalition forces return to the division, he doesn't mind gearing up and eagerly trying to cooperate with Li Zicheng again.

It was in this situation that he heard the news that Li Zicheng had conquered Tianjin.

Now, I am even more determined that I must stick to my post and not get out of the customs easily.

Don't look at it, in the battle of the three hills, the Qing army lost tens of thousands of people, but after all, it was mainly cannon fodder. If Li Zicheng is competitive enough, they still have the strength to fight.

If Li Zicheng is unable to cooperate in the end, as long as Shanhaiguan is still in hand, they can calmly withdraw from the customs.

With a back road, you will naturally be able to advance and retreat freely.
