On 15 February, after two days of silence, Dorgon made the decision to leave the Central Plains. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

He also decided to personally lead the army and drive the expedition in person.

On the 16th, he told Taizu and Taizong in the Taimiao, and the sacrificial text said that a series of victories in the Qing Dynasty since last year, occupying Korea and attacking Japan, all of which were Taizu Wu Emperor Su Zhi, was used to announce the comfort of the gods. Now he will personally lead the army to Vaiming and vow to complete the long-cherished ambition of Emperor Taizu Wu, and Fu Ji Emperor will bow down to the spirit of heaven to give him his blessing.

On the 17th, he drove the palace and appointed Abatai, the king of Dorao Raoyu County, as the general under the order, and the prince of Zheng, Jierharang, as the general of Jingyuan. They were ordered to capture Jizhen fortresses such as Xifengkou, Lengkou, and Jielingkou, and drag Yang Guozhu's Jizhen army.

He also appointed Duoduo, the prince of Yu, as the general of Pingnan, and ordered him to work with him to force Ningyuan and Shanhaiguan to hold back the Liaodong army of Wu Sangui and others.

Prince Renli acted as the general of Dingguo and asked him to guard Shengjing and protect the back road.

He personally bestowed the seal of the great general on everyone, and said: "My emperor's ancestor Zhao built Piji, and the emperor decided on the grand cause at the end of the examination, and the important task was paid to the browtle." Now Mongolia, Korea, and Japan have all been subjugated, and the Han people have conquered more and more cities and lands. I have ordered all the great generals to do all the rewards and punishments, and they should work together to make progress. ”

Each person received the seal and bowed three times and nine times.

Dolgon gave the major generals yellow umbrella one, two silk, as well as black fox hats, mink robes, mink coats, mink mattresses, cool hats, python robes, etc. And he gave each of them the clothes of the kings, the princes of Belle and the princes, and the saddle horses.

On the same day, the Qing country mobilized the whole country.

In the forty-third year of Wanli, Nurhachi formally established the Eight Banners system, and each ox recorded 300 nucleus. Of course, these three hundred are not three hundred people, nor are they three hundred men, just like the Ming military households, more than three hundred representatives of the heads of households.

When a father dies and a son succeeds, and a brother dies and a brother dies, there must always be a representative.

These people have wives and children, parents and brothers, and generally one ding corresponds to five to eight people.

The Eight Banners are the unity of the soldiers and the people, the whole people are soldiers, they work in peacetime, they are conscripted in wartime, and they provide their own ordnance, grain and grass, which is a bit similar to the government soldiers.

And these 300 representatives of the heads of households are called bannermen, and whether they can wear armor or not depends on their ability.

However, after the rise of the Eight Banners, there was quite a martial style, and the assessment began at the age of ten, and the test was taken every three years, from the step armor to the vest, to the Bayala. If you can't be a step armor and enjoy the right to wear armor when you are an adult at the age of sixteen, you will be very discriminated against.

The representative of the head of the 300 households per cow record is the banner ding, and the remaining brothers and heirs are not on the military register for the time being, and the ordinary people are called "Yu Ding", and if the official general is the household, it is called idle.

After the rise of the Eight Banners, every time he went to war, he basically looted a lot, and Yu Ding was idle and also enthusiastically went to war, and there are many records of a certain "idle" attacking a certain city and dying in Manchurian historical materials.

During the Huang Taiji period, there were a total of 592 Niu Lu in the Qing Kingdom, 310 in the Eight Banners of the Inner Manchurian, 118 in the Eight Banners of Mongolia, and 164 in the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty. At that time, 200 banners were basically determined to be a bull record, so there were about 62,000 banners in the Manchurian Eight Banners, 23,600 banners in the Eight Banners of Mongolia, and 32,000 banners in the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty.

The 24 banners of Manchu, Mongolia and Han are almost 120,000 soldiers.

Of course, unless there is a decisive battle of life and death, all flags will not be dispatched, just like Wang Dou's army, which will not be pulled out every time there is a battle.

In the battle of a stone in history, in addition to the Menghan Eight Banners, only two-thirds of the Eight Banners were dispatched. Together with the Mongol soldiers of the Outer Domain, the army of King Sanshun, the Korean soldiers, and other cannon fodder groups such as Butha, a total of 135,000 soldiers were dispatched.

I'm not sure how many remnants of the army were at that time, the house slaves were clothed, and the slaves Aha or something, but no matter what the 50,000 and 100,000, these are all ignored. For example, the Mongol expedition to the west said that there were 20,000 men, but at least ten times as many of the vassal army artisan slaves were omitted.

In the era of cold weapons, there were 130,000 elite soldiers, which was a staggering number.

Xu Dayan: "100,000 people, should sweep the world." ”

Wang Dou has worked hard for many years, and the regular army is only 60,000.

However, during the Battle of Songjin, the Qing State suffered heavy losses, with more than 10,000 people killed in the Eight Banners of Manchuria alone, and the rest of the Eight Banners of Mongolia, the Eight Banners of the Han Army, the Outer Domains of Mongolia, etc., suffered countless losses.

After the follow-up of the incident, they also lost a lot of power in the outer Mongols, although these people were not good at fighting, only about three to five bannermen could reach the ability standard of armored soldiers. However, at least it is also an important supplement to the combat power of the Manchu Qing State, and an excellent cannon fodder.

For example, the Horqin tribes, which had the closest relationship with the Manchu Qing Dynasty, had 448 Niulu, more than 22,000 bannermen, and more than 6,500 armored soldiers.

In the outer Mongolian domain, there are 384 cattle records, more than 19,000 bannermen, and more than 5,400 armored soldiers.

Combined, the number of armored soldiers reached more than 11,000, even if every time the Qing State conquered half of their troops, there were 20,000 bannermen and 5,000 armored soldiers.

There are also the Mobei tribes of Waizasak Mongolia, Khalkha, Tushetu and other tribes, they vary in number, but the total number of armored soldiers adds up to 8,000. If they were to help in the war, they would be very numerous.

However, now except for the hardcore Horqin, most of the rest have broken away from the rule of the Qing Dynasty. The Waizazak Mongols in Mobei, and the naturalized city of Tumut in Monan were subordinated to Wang Dou. Even the two wings of Tumut and the Karaqin tribes that were close to Wang Dou's forces were a little unstable.

Even at that time, the two banners of Tumut left and right Zasak Ombu Chuhuer, Shanba still planned to say goodbye without saying goodbye, and privately ran to Wang Dou, but was captured and executed by the vigilant Dolgon, and appointed a new left and right two banners Zasak.

However, it was a fact that the outer Mongolian vassals were unstable, and Dolgon was very aware that the left and right wings of Tumut and the Karaqin tribes were fighting with the king, and he could only turn a blind eye as if he did not know.

Afterwards, Dolgon made up the number of bannermen in Manchuria and Mongolia through various ways of raising flags and making up for Yu Ding, and also rebuilt the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty. Ran Dolgon knew that the core combat power of their Eight Banners was no longer comparable to that before the Jinzhou War.

Fortunately, as long as the Jingbian Army is not against Wang Dou, the combat power of the Eight Banners is still the top in East Asia at this time, and this is also proved from their overwhelming attack on Korea and Japan.

Moreover, Dolgon built eight banners of Korea and eight banners of Japan, and the number of bannermen for each of the eight banners was 16,000, and the sum of the two was 32,000.

Although Dolgon believed that it was difficult to guarantee the combat power of these Koreans and the Japanese, such as the Eight Banners Japan, only the samurai in the interior could meet the standard of armor soldiers, and most of them were still the lowest level of infantry armor, and those Koreans had even lower combat power.

However, the iron gunners in them are still good, and their ashigaru "gun" tactics also have merit.

The Korean archers were also good, their arrows were fast, and they even surpassed the Mongols in the efficiency output of light arrows.

Most importantly, these people have increased the number of bannermen, and now there are 40 banners in Manchuria, Mongolia, Han, Korea, and Japan, and the number of soldiers has reached 150,000.

……

This national war is related to whether the Qing State can enter the Central Plains, and even the survival of the country, so the Manchu Qing Dynasty can be said to have poured out the country.

Among the 40 flags of Manchuria, Mongolia, Han, Korea and Japan, there are 23,600 banners of the eight banners of Mongolia.

There are 32,000 banners of the Han Eight Banners, all of which come out.

There are 16,000 flags in the eight flags of the day, and all of them come out.

There are 16,000 flags in the eight flags, and all of them come out.

Even with 62,000 banners in the Eight Banners, there were 60,000 people, and only 2,000 Qiding were left to defend Shengjing, and in other castles and villages, only Yu Ding and women and children guarded the city.

At the same time, Dolgon also sent an edict to his hardcore Korqin tribe, asking them to dispatch 20,000 bannermen and 5,000 armored soldiers.

There are also the Ao Han Division, the Naiman Division, the Karaqin Division, the Tumut Division, etc., all of whom need to send troops, and at least two-thirds of the number of troops are dispatched, with a total of about 10,000 banners and 3,000 armored soldiers.

In this way, the Qing State dispatched a total of about 180,000 soldiers.

In addition, there are 70,000 clothed Aha accompanying troops, pushing grain and grass baggage, moving and seizing, and handling miscellaneous affairs.

This is also necessary, if there is a seizure, will those armor-clad bannermen still be allowed to carry their own carts to pick rice?

In case of siege, even let them make their own shield carts and pick up soil to fill the trenches?

At this time, most of the Eight Banners were stationed around Shengjing, and the system of soldiers and civilians was implemented, and most of the ordnance, grain and grass were provided by themselves. Especially those who are full of Mongolian flags, and almost every family has horses and mules, and the assembly speed is faster.

Only the Mongolian tribes of the outer domains will move more slowly, and they will also gather in Yingzhou, Shanhaiguan and other places one after another.

There are also the clothed Ahabs who accompany the army, who will slowly gather and transport grain, rice and baggage to the front under the leadership of Ying Erdai, the head of the household department.

When Huang Taiji was in power, he advocated the regularization of the Eight Banners, and also implemented some food and salary systems in the army, although it was not much, most people still brought their own dry food. However, considering that he might have to stay at Shanhaiguan and other places for several months, Dolgon thought that it was necessary for Gongzhong to provide this grain and grass, and the grain and rice that happened to be stolen from Korea and Japan could come in handy.

In the territory of the Ming Dynasty, the only thing the Qing army feared was the Jingbian Army, Yang Guozhu, Wu Sangui and others could only be said to be opponents, but they were not afraid.

As for the Liukou, although they are powerful, their combat effectiveness must be limited, after all, I heard that they are mostly composed of surrendered Ming troops, and what kind of virtue the Ming army is, they know very well the Qing army.

What's even better is that the Liukou's attention may also be on Wang Dou, so that the Jingbian army that he fears will be entangled.

The Qing soldiers no longer have any worries, so even if they can't settle the Central Plains this time, they can at least grab a handful, for several years, the territory of the Ming Kingdom must be very fat. In particular, the summer grain harvest will be in a few months, and a few months later, the autumn grain harvest will be harvested, and more materials can be grabbed.

Although the Eight Banners did not have military salaries, they had a reward for each capture, gold and silver, wealth, cattle and sheep population, tea, rice, oil and salt, the brave and horses and armor rewards, plus private booty, each banner was full of pockets every time they went out.

Therefore, this expedition, every family is enthusiastic, and all towns and villages are full of touching pictures of sons sending their fathers and wives sending their husbands.

There are many people in the family, and the rest of them are also enthusiastic to join the army, and they are willing to exist as auxiliary soldiers and miscellaneous soldiers, following their father and brother to fight.

Although they did not share the rewards after the war, it was an unspoken rule to hide the spoils of war privately, and some people even planned to grab a few more coats and come back to cultivate the land instead of themselves.

There was an atmosphere of fanaticism and excitement in the Qing Kingdom, and some fanatics even shouted: "The Southern Dynasty will die, and the national dynasty will be determined today!" ”

……

February 20th.

In the past few days, a steady stream of soldiers and horses have gathered in Shengjing, especially on the 20th, the martial arts arena in the north of Shengjing City is like a sea, and a group of military horses gather almost every quarter of an hour.

They are arranged according to the array of flags, eight banners Manchuria yellow flag, eight banners Manchuria inlaid yellow flag, eight banners Manchuria positive white flag, eight banners Manchuria blue flag, eight banners Manchuria inlaid white flag, eight banners Manchuria positive red flag, eight banners Manchuria inlaid red flag, eight banners Manchuria inlaid blue flag.

They formed a military formation with Niu Lu, and then each Niu Lu was listed as a separate small formation, and they stood solemnly and well-armed.

Each of their ordinary soldiers had helmets and iron-inlaid armor, painted iron helmets, sweat-stained placket foam stud cotton armor, and jet-black high-pointed helmets with red tassels fluttering. They all had horses around them, and some even had more than one, and the horses were equipped with long and short weapons, all of which were thick and heavy.

Immediately there were shields, huge bows, quivers full of heavy arrows, and so on.

Their eyes are cruel and violent, full of confidence in a hundred battles.

These are ordinary step armor, and there are horse armors, all of which are covered with double armor, and the pure iron armor is covered with thick cotton armor, which is more sophisticated. Among them, the officers of the Da Zhuang and Paishku levels all wore black tassels on their helmets and wore small flags two feet square on their backs.

They were dressed in three layers of heavy armor, that is, in addition to the cotton armor and iron armor, there was also a layer of chain mail in the innermost layer.

Finally, there are the Baya soldiers controlled by the banners of Baya Lama Zhangjing, all of them with slanted flame flags on their backs, and their hands are full of heavy heavy weapons, maces, tiger guns, etc. The large bow they used was also generally a twelve-force bow.

What is this concept?

In other words, according to the strength of the bow, the weight of the future is almost 158.7 pounds, and if you don't die by an arrow, you will definitely be seriously injured.

They are the most elite veterans of each banner, all of them have a strong bloody killing atmosphere, a bright helmet and bright armor, iron armor worn outside, and pieces of armor leaves are made of fine iron, which is extremely thick and eye-catching.

In order to deal with the threat of firearms, after the rise of the Eight Banners, they have made great efforts in armor protection, and the armor they wear is all excellent.

"The armor, masks, arms, and hands of the thieves are all fine iron, and so are the horses."

"The light is heavy armored, and the short one of the bird's gun can't penetrate it."

"The first one who wears heavy armor over cotton armor and a big thick cotton hat on the helmet will march forward with a shield in front and stand under the mountain city."

"Wolves, spears, swords and swords, cotton helmets beyond iron helmets, cotton armor beyond iron armor."

About 60,000 people from the Eight Banners of Manchuria lined up in the battle, they were like a forest of swords and guns, and the crowd was like water, although the number of people was numerous, but the formation was neat and quiet, and only a few horses neighed occasionally.

They stood solemnly, countless dense helmets and armor towering, and Ling Ran's iron-blooded aura spread.

Behind the Manchurian flags, there are the corresponding Mongolian Eight Banners and Han Eight Banners, Japanese Eight Banners and Xian Eight Banners, etc. Although they are called the same Eight Banners, of course, their status is not equal, only the Eight Banners have flag owners, and the rest are all solid mountain Ezhen, and they still belong to the subordinate relationship with the owners of the Eight Banners.

They were all quietly arrayed, but they were quite inferior in momentum.

Their equipment can't be compared with the Eight Banners, not to mention a few layers of armor, even those who have iron-inlaid cotton armor are few, and many people only have an ordinary cotton armor. Especially those Eight Banners Japan and Eight Banners Korean Army, most of them are still domestic ordnance, which seems a little incongruous.

However, more than 100,000 people lined up, swords and guns were like forests, flags were like the sea, and countless heads were spreading, and the overall momentum was still very amazing.

……

There were no emperor's personal guards in the martial arts arena, but at this time, these most elite soldiers of the Qing Kingdom were lined up outside the Fujin Gate in the east of Shengjing City, and were arranged until the side of the martial arts arena in the north of the city.

They are more powerful beings than the banners, all of them are wearing bright helmets and bright armor, wearing heavy iron armor, and pieces of cold light flashing.

Each of them has a carved feather on his helmet, and a flying tiger back flag is inserted behind him, and the presence of an officer among them has an otter's tail on the helmet, and a two-foot flying tiger fox tail flag is inserted behind his back.

They sat quietly on their horses, motionless in the cold wind, showing the quality of veterans of a hundred battles.

They were the most skilled in the Qing Dynasty, and the number of people in the whole camp was less than 2,000.

In the whistling cold wind, when the time came, suddenly the whining conch sounded, and then listened to the sound of trumpets and suona continuously, and the drum music was noisy.

Yellow umbrellas, flags, bones, battles, gongs, drums, painted horns, flutes, sheng, drums, transverse flutes, dragon head transverse flutes, sandalwood boards, drums, densely packed, those who serve are all green clothes and yellow coats, with red belts around their waists, wearing six-petal red velvet hats, and yellow feathers on the copper crown, the number of people reaches eighty-four.

And under the yellow umbrella, Dolgon was dressed in gilded armor, and he was on his horse with a solemn expression.

Behind him, there were the bannermen of the Manchurian, Mongolian, Han, Chao, and Japanese banners and Gushan Ezhen, as well as the princes and princes of the country, the princes of the county, the beyers, the officials of the six ministries, the scholars of the literary museum, etc., all of whom gathered, and they would all follow Dolgon on the expedition.

At this time, they were all on their bodies, and their faces flashed with divine excitement.

In the sound of horns and suona, the big driver went directly into the hall outside the door, which was the temple of the Qing Dynasty, and every time he went out to the temple.

The statue of God has already been invited and placed in the Hall of Enjoyment, and the statue is the Son of God, Sakyamuni, Guanyin Bodhisattva, the Maharaja Ancestor, the Marshal of the Three Armies, and the Emperor Guan Sheng.

For the sacrificial shrine, each of the monarchs and ministers had fasted for a day, and their hearts were pure.

When they entered the hall, they offered bread and wine, and hung up the paper money, and they began to kneel and prostrate three times and nine times. Outside the hall again, he lined up in front of the eight guards carried by the expedition, blew the conch again, and sounded the lama's horn.

In the sound of trumpets and suona, they began to worship the heavens again, kneeling three times and kowtowing nine times.

After prostrating, Dolgon got up, he took a long breath, and said silently in his heart: "Haotian God, bless me Daqing." ”

He got on his horse and got up, and when his horse passed, all the wise soldiers of Gebush dismounted and knelt down, waiting for the emperor to pass by, and they shouted, "Hurrah! ”

A group of Ge Bush soldiers dismounted and knelt down, all the way over, all the soldiers in the formation knelt, they shouted long live, and finally converged into a continuous shout.

"Hooray, hooray, hooray!"

Dorgon rode his horse in the arena, and he marched among the armies, but when he saw the banners like a forest, the swords and guns like a sea, the continuous army formation seemed to reach the horizon.

There was supreme pride in his heart, who could stop such an army?

Satisfied, he laughed, he whipped his finger, and three sharp trumpets rang out.

In the sound of cannons, the army began to move, their banners were like the sea, and the boundless crowd seemed to cover the earth.

On February 20, the seventeenth year of Chongzhen, the Qing State poured out the country and sent 250,000 troops to crusade against the Ming Dynasty and fight for the Central Plains!

……

March 1, Jinan.

"God looks at it, and he only seeks it. The people returned, and only cut the Su. Life is normal, and love is especially visible. In the past generations of Yueji, we know the reasons for gains and losses; Learn from the past and know the present, and every time you know the reason. Advisor Ming Dynasty, Jiu Xi Taining, Prison Relaxation Discipline. The king is not very dark, isolated and sheltered......"

The martial arts field of Jinan City is in the southeast of the city, at the foot of Thousand Buddha Mountain, it is rumored that this is the feng shui of Jinan City, according to legend, Cao Cao was stationed here that year, and built a martial arts field to train soldiers. In the following dynasties, this place was the place where the garrison practiced.

The martial arts arena is huge, and the troops can be arranged up to 100,000 soldiers and horses, but there are a lot of soldiers and horses in Dashunguo, there were 600,000 people some time ago, and now there may be 700,000, the specific number Li Zicheng does not know, and the officers and generals under his command do not know, and there are too many Ming troops surrendered by Gaine.

Therefore, those who can enter the martial arts arena, in addition to his old battalion, are elite soldiers selected from hundreds of thousands of troops. They formed a huge military formation, which was really like a sea of people, with flags like a forest, and the arrays they arranged were endless.

On the platform, Li Zicheng was dressed in a felt hat, sitting on the king's chair, and on both sides of him were dense Shunguo generals, six government officials, and Ming Dynasty officials who surrendered. And under the stage are dense old battalion generals and sharp soldiers, all neatly armored, swords and spears solemn.

Not far from the stage are the local gentry and celebrities who were called to watch the ceremony, and the celebrities and dignitaries of various provinces in Shandong, they stood intensively, and many people looked at the movement on the stage, and then looked at the military formation in front, and their eyes were full of shock.

Some of them had complicated expressions, while others were excited.

"Dashun is really a strong soldier."

"Yes, the officers and soldiers of the court are simply a rabble, no wonder they are vulnerable, and the king of Shuntian is like a bamboo."

"Of course, look at the officers and soldiers who surrendered on the stage, which one is not holding a heavy army? One by one, they fell without firing an arrow, no wonder this Ming Dynasty is going to lose the world. ”

"Alas, is it really going to be a change of dynasty?"

Not to mention that these celebrities and gentry have complicated expressions and discussions, at this time, Niu Jinxing, the prime minister of Shunguo on the stage, was reading out the edict of the first year of Yongchang issued by Li Zicheng to the world.

Compared with the previous inscription, the tone of this edict seems to be softened, saying that "the monarch is not very dark", thinking that Emperor Chongzhen is not a mediocre and corrupt person.

Then he said, "...... Isolated and eternal; Ministers do their best to do their own thing, and they are less loyal to the party than the party. even bribed the palace, and the prestige of the end of the day moved; The gods of the sect are good at it, and the fat of the left is exhausted. The princes all eat meat and hakama, and rely on it as their heart, and the eunuchs know the chaff dogs and dolphins, and borrow their ears and eyes to ......"

Explain why the dynasty has come to this point. Some of the gentry below disagreed, while others sighed when they heard it: "Yes, the king is not very dark, isolated and eternal...... The emperor has always been diligent, but there are too many traitors and villains around him. ”

Someone whimpered and cried: "How did Da Ming get to this point." ”

Li Zicheng had decided to march to the Beijing Division, led 500,000 troops to the north, and took Li Guo as the vanguard to attack the Beijing Division.

500,000, of course, is a very large number, but although there are many soldiers and horses, Li Zicheng is not worried about grain and grass, because in the north, there are too many prefectures and counties, and any one can solve the big problem needed by the army.

Especially after entering the Gyeonggi region, the wealth and grain and rice collected are not comparable to Henan, Shandong and other places.

What worries him is that the Beijing division is strong and has many defenders, even if there are a large number of internal responses, they may not be able to attack for a while.

As a result of the deliberations of the officials and generals under his command, it is possible to attack the Jingshi for at least three months.

Over time, things change.

Moreover, it has always been dangerous to go north to take the Beijing division, and only Zhu Yuanzhang, the Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, has succeeded in history.

At that time, Ming Taizu's strategy of destroying the Yuan: "Take Shandong first and remove its shield." Spin Henan, break its wings. Pull out the Tong Pass and guard it, according to its household threshold, the situation in the world, into my control. Then he marched into the capital of Yuandu, and he was alone and helpless, and he could overcome without a fight. Both the capital, the drum to the west, the clouds, Jiuyuan, Guanlong can be swept also. ”

The current situation of Dashun is somewhat similar to that time, but it is not like it, for example, Shaanxi was not captured, in order to avoid accidents, it is the most ideal result to strive for the surrender of the emperor of the Ming Dynasty.

Therefore, Li Zicheng issued an edict to persuade the emperor to surrender, and corrected the Ming Dynasty officials and gentry to judge the situation and welcome the new lord.

After the edict was read, the military array below let out an earth-shattering shout, they were first chaotic, and then converged: "Long live the Great Shun Heavenly King!" ”

"Hooray! Banzai! Banzai! ”

The overwhelming sound of long live was higher and higher, and the huge whistling sound shocked the gentry and celebrities who watched the ceremony speechless, and many people trembled unconsciously.

On the stage, the generals of the fifth battalion, Liu Zongmin, Liu Fangliang, Liu Xiyao, Yuan Zongdi, Li Guo and others were happy and proud.

Yang Shaofan smiled happily for a while, and gritted his teeth for a while.

Li Yan looked excited, and thought: "The new dynasty is about to be established, the weather will be very different, and the people can live and work in peace and contentment, and there will be no longer the pain of displacement and chaos." ”

Niu Jinxing and other six government dignitaries all looked reserved, stroked their beards and smiled, and looked at the shouting soldiers below with some smugness.

And those Ming Dynasty officials and generals who surrendered, such as Liu Liangzuo, Liu Zeqing, Qiu Lei and others, all took a breath and looked at the roaring array below in amazement, Liu Liangzuo sighed: "Look, the Dashun army is so imposing, it is really disciplined, neatly marched, and the officers and soldiers are far from comparable." ”

Liu Zeqing also sighed: "Yes, the rebel army is so elite, it seems that the destruction of the Ming Dynasty is not a problem." ”

Although they sighed and spoke, their faces were full of red light, and Liu Zeqing smiled happily and said: "It seems that the new dynasty will soon be established, and we are all heroes from the dragon." ”

A sneer appeared in Qiu Lei's eyes: "After defeating the Beijing Division, it should be the western attack on Xuanfu Shanxi, listening to the fact that it has been very rich over there over the years, we will definitely be able to make a lot of money." ”

They all burst out laughing.

……

After the parade ceremony, the army directly marched, the people and horses neighed, and the flags covered the sky, and the scene was extremely spectacular.

And not only the elite marching on the school field, stationed near Jinan, but also the Shun army from all over Shandong marched northward, each with its own task, or the middle road, or two wings, and finally gathered at the foot of the Beijing division.

Like a torrent of general army continues to start, the sound of the horn resounded through the world, Li Zicheng rode a black barge horse, with more than 100 fine horses, he climbed the Thousand Buddha Mountain, and saw the flag below like the sea, the tide of people continued to march, this situation, let Li Zicheng be complacent.

At the same time, he was excited and a little dazed, is he really going to destroy the Ming Dynasty?

Lao Hu's patrol battalion is also in the torrent of advance, they have been treated as the old battalion, everyone in the horse team has war horses, many people also have double horses, even the foot soldiers of the past, and they also have horses and mules to travel.

He sat on his horse, looked at the front, and looked at the rear, all of them were like a sea of flags, and the mighty crowd did not see the head in front of him, and he did not see the tail in the back.

Lao Hu couldn't help muttering: "Big scene." ”

Kong San beside him took a deep breath and finally went north, and this was almost over.

On the first day of March in the seventeenth year of Chongzhen, Shunguo poured out the country, with 500,000 soldiers, and went north to destroy Ming! (To be continued.) )
