When Li Zicheng led a million Dashun army, within a month, traveled thousands of miles, during which he broke through dozens of passes in the city, defeated countless Ming troops, and calmly came to the city of Beijing, but he did not expect that his rear had been completely chaotic into a pot of porridge.

Lintong Mansion, although it is not a border town, but because it is located at the junction of Hu and Han, although it is a place of government, it is even worse than the land of a county in a large town in the Central Plains, and the entire state capital plus the following seven states and counties, a total of less than 300,000 people, can be regarded as a vast and sparsely populated area.

The prefect of Lintong Mansion, Zhou Yingren, the first year of the Apocalypse, because his family background is average, and he does not have much talent, so for more than 20 years, although he has achieved the position of the five-grade prefect, he is in some poor places, coupled with the fact that the court has been deaf for many years, and the world is in turmoil, so that Zhou Yingren, who originally wanted to make a career, gradually died of this thought.

Then, not long ago, under the strong soldiers of the Dashun army, in order to protect the people of the city, Zhou Yingren surrendered to the Dashun army, for Zhou Yingren, who had already died, it was no longer a hindrance to be an official, but what he didn't expect was that although the Dashun army accepted his surrender, he also appointed him to continue to serve as the prefect of Lintong Mansion.

After surrendering to the Dashun army, Zhou Yingren was originally worried about when, the imperial army would fight back, but what he didn't expect was that after a few months, the imperial court not only did not fight back, but the Dashun army became stronger and stronger, and even swore to the east, wanting to smash the Yellow Dragon and completely destroy the Ming Dynasty.

Today, on the third day of the day, Zhou Yingren because he drank a few more drinks last night, he was still lying on the bed, and did not get up, according to his rules, no one should dare to disturb him at this time, but what he didn't expect was that the originally quiet bedroom suddenly heard a sound of knocking on the door, accompanied by the housekeeper's eager shouts.

"Master, master, wake up, wake up, wake up, something's wrong, something is wrong."

Hearing the housekeeper's shout, Zhou Yingren, who was hangover and had not woken up, suddenly shouted angrily, "What is it called, the master is not dead yet, what is the big deal, is the sky falling, get out of the way." ”

If it was the past, his roar, the housekeeper would have left a long time ago, but what he didn't expect was that this time the housekeeper continued to shout uncharacteristically, "Master, something really happened, I heard Mr. Wang say that there is a soldier and horse outside the city, let us switch and surrender, and now the entire Linqi Mansion is in chaos." ”

Hearing the housekeeper's shout, Zhou Yingren was suddenly startled, he never thought that there would be soldiers and horses who would dare to come to them to make trouble, suddenly, anxiously, he suddenly got up from the bed, and he couldn't even wear shoes, so he hurriedly walked out of the bedroom, grabbed the housekeeper and asked angrily, "Say, who are the people coming, how many soldiers and horses are coming, and who are they leading." ”

Hearing Zhou Yingren's question, the housekeeper panicked, and couldn't even speak for a while, seeing the housekeeper like this, Zhou Yingren was helpless, and walked quickly to the front yard, fortunately, not far away, he saw the chief soldier of Lintong Mansion, Wang Lu was anxiously walking around the door, and when he saw Zhou Yingren who appeared suddenly, he couldn't be surprised, and said

"Lord Zhou, just now there was a cavalry under the banner of Daming, about 10,000 people, suddenly appeared outside the city, and then asked us to switch and surrender, saying that if we don't switch before noon, they will attack the city, what do you think about this matter."

Wang Lu was originally the chief soldier of Lintong Mansion, although he was the chief soldier of the First Mansion, he only had less than 3,000 soldiers under his command, and most of them were untrained peasants, which is why Zhou Yingren wisely chose to surrender when he saw the soldiers of the Dashun Army pressing the border, because he had no capital to resist at all.

Hearing Wang Lu's words, Zhou Yingren was instantly stunned, and muttered to himself for a long time, "How can this be, how can this be, doesn't the Dashun army have millions of soldiers, how can a Ming army of more than 10,000 people appear here, could it be that Li Zicheng was defeated by the Ming court, otherwise, how could the Ming army appear here?" ”

Seeing Zhou Yingren's appearance of the six gods and no master, Wang Lu's face was also gloomy, he never imagined that the Ming army would appear here, if he had known, he would not have surrendered to the Dashun army with Zhou Yingren, and now he is not a person inside and out.

"General Dong, do you think they can surrender, this is a state capital, different from the small counties we broke before, if they are really unwilling to surrender, will we really attack, you know, we are all cavalry, using cavalry to attack the city, it is a big waste!"

Just when everyone in the city was panicking, the Ming army outside the city was also discussing, the leader of this Ming army was Dong Qi, after they separated from Shi Lei outside Yanmen Pass, they followed Shi Lei's order, in northern Shaanxi, constantly harassed the states and counties belonging to the Dashun State, at the beginning, they were not sure of the strength of these states and counties, just attacking some states and counties.

And these originally belonged to the Ming Dynasty's prefectures and counties, many of them warmly surrendered when they saw them appear, and even sent rich food to reward the army, so that they became more and more emboldened, for Shi Lei's order, although they didn't know the intention, but they knew that as long as they would be in northern Shaanxi, the more chaotic it was, the more helpful it would be to Shi Lei's plan, so, after several discussions, they finally decided to abandon the small county town and start attacking the state capital, As the first state capital to attack, the relatively weak Linqi Mansion was their primary target.

Seeing the city wall in front of him, which was twice as high as the average county town, although Dong Qi was not absolutely sure in his heart, he knew that at this time, he would definitely not be able to say discouraged words, but only boost morale.

"Don't worry, for this Zhou Yingren, I saw him when I was in Xi'an, he must be a timid and fearful person, and now seeing our army pressing the border, if he doesn't want to die, he will definitely open the city and surrender."

As if to verify Dong Qi's words, as soon as he finished speaking, he saw the tightly closed city gate slowly open to both sides, and then, two people in official uniforms slowly walked out of the city

The Fall of Lintong Mansion

Qingyang Mansion fell

Lanzhou Wei and Ningxia Wei were attacked by the Ming army, although they barely kept the city from losing, but suffered heavy losses

A letter of urgent military information, quickly passed to Yuan Zongdi, who was stationed under Yulin City, looking at the urgent information in his hand in just half a month, there was half a foot later, Yuan Zongdi finally threw them all to the ground with patience.

When he first got this information, Yuan Zongdi thought that it was just a small group of Ming army's revenge, and he didn't take it seriously at all, after all, his primary goal was to capture Yulin City, as long as he captured Yulin City, then he would have enough troops and time to completely eliminate these Ming fish.

But what I didn't expect was that this Ming army was like a spark of fire, in a short period of time, captured four or five state capitals, and the remaining county towns were countless, under this powerful blow, in addition to a few cities garrisoned by the Dashun army, the entire northern Shaanxi, most of the states and counties, were either beaten down by them, or directly opened the door and surrendered, for a while, just by virtue of the land of Shaanxi, fell into chaos again.

"Tell me, you all talk about it, what the hell is going on, how suddenly, there will be such a powerful Ming army, you know, in the entire land of Shaanxi, except for Sun Chuanting's Northwest Army, the rest of the Ming army is simply a group of rabble, it is impossible to have such a strong combat effectiveness, how did they come out." Looking at the generals of the Dashun Army sitting in the big tent, Yuan Zongdi asked.

Hearing Yuan Zongdi's question, these generals of the Dashun army also looked at each other, speechless for a long time, for these suddenly appeared Ming troops, they didn't know at all, if it wasn't for Yuan Zongdi to tell them, they still don't know that many cities in the whole of Shaanxi have been lost.

"Great, general, I heard the general just say that this Ming army is all cavalry, so will they be Guanning Iron Cavalry, you know, the entire Ming Dynasty can now become a cavalry, and only the Guanning Iron Cavalry stationed at Shanhaiguan is left." Just when everyone was puzzled, a general spoke.

"Snort"

Hearing the words of this general, all the generals of the Dashun Army who were doing couldn't help but gasp, the name of the human shadow tree, for the entire Ming Dynasty, stationed in Shanhaiguan, the powerful Manchu Tartars, blocked outside the pass, and the Guanning Iron Cavalry, who had not been able to enter for many years, was a powerful representative, although they were usually very proud of their combat effectiveness, but if they really had to match the Guanning Iron Cavalry, they would also be weak-hearted.

"Impossible, this is simply impossible, you know, if Guan Ning Tieqi wants to come to Shaanxi, unless he grows wings and flies over, you know, now the king is with a million troops, blocking the eastward march, they want to come, then they have to meet the king, this is simply impossible." Hearing the words of this general, Yuan Zongdi immediately shook his head and vetoed, what are you kidding, Guanning Iron Cavalry, if Guanning Iron Cavalry can come over, it will come over as early as when Xi'an City is not broken, and it will take until now, I am saying that even if Emperor Chongzhen wants to transfer Guanning Iron Cavalry now, it will be transferred to Beijing City, not this useless Shaanxi.
