Dai Shan planted secret agents in the Guanning Army in Western Liaoning a few years ago, and was originally stationed in Ningyuan and Jinzhou, but this time they withdrew into Shanhaiguan City with the army, which was just a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

He had racked his efforts to get in touch with the man a few days earlier, and he had brought a counter-plot with him. It is said that after the prefect surnamed Li came to the camp to negotiate, he was suspected of being a spy of the Qing army, and was arrested and imprisoned as soon as he returned to the city.

In this way, it took the opportunity to let this Li Governor's Mansion attract the attention of the Ming army in the city, but ignored the spies who were already in the city. Later, Zhang Tongjuan, who had come to negotiate with Governor Li, personally rushed to the Qing army's camp to negotiate, and proposed that he could provide grain, grass, and silver for the Qing army in exchange for their withdrawal.

Dai Shan couldn't help but laugh dumbly after hearing this, it seems that the butts of several important ministers of the Ming Dynasty in the city can no longer sit on chairs, and they actually put forward such conditions that have never been before. So he agreed to the plan again, but proposed that the Ming Dynasty deliver half of the grain first.

This is not that Dai Shan deliberately made it difficult, but that the grain of the Qing army had begun to run thin after the sea ships were burned, which was also one of the reasons why he was determined to rush to work together with the outside to win the Kaishan Customs.

Who knew that the general judgment was also a serious bargain, and finally reached an agreement, paying one-third of the military rations first, and when Sakha Ling's army withdrew from the Yiyuan Pass to outside the Shanhai Pass, he would hand over all the remaining grain.

Dai Shan once forced that the first part of the military rations must be delivered this afternoon, but Zhang Tongju refused, not because he couldn't get it, but because he had to wait for Jingshi's reply, otherwise even Sun Chengzong would not dare to be proficient.

Dai Shan was a little disappointed, since he couldn't get food today, he would never have the idea of earning the food promised by the Ming army before this battle.

That night, the night was dark and windy, the clouds were thick, and the five fingers could not be seen, it was a good time to act, and the Sakha Ling Department took the opportunity to set off in many ways and sneaked to the south gate of the inner city of Shanhaiguan, and the signal was sent out, just waiting for the inner city in the city to open the city gate, and then they swarmed in.

Dai Shan had written several times to tell Sakha that the key to this battle was to him, so he attached great importance to personally leading people to touch the south gate of Shanhaiguan. The city quickly responded to the secret signal from Sakha's department, and Saha's heart calmed down a little.

Then they waited for the inner part of the city to be arranged, and then they opened the gates of the city, and let them in. It is said that the inner part of the city should be a general above the rank of a general, whose status is not low, and he also has important errands.

The night was quiet and terrifying, and Saharan strictly restrained his subordinates from making the slightest noise without authorization, so as not to expose the target. But as time passed, Saha's heart hung again, and ominous clouds seemed to gather in his chest.

However, the city quickly sent back a new signal to calm them down, which somewhat reassured Sakha Ling.

Suddenly, an extremely dazzling beam of light burst into the sky, piercing the night sky, and then exploded at the highest point, like a heavenly maiden scattering flowers. This is clearly fireworks, and some of the Eight Banners soldiers who were ambushed under the city raised their heads to see the excitement. But Saha's face changed drastically, not good, he was tricked!

He was about to give the order to retreat, but it was too late. Just after that bunch of fireworks exploded, countless torches suddenly lit up on the city, followed by a pouring rain, drenching many of the Eight Banners soldiers who were ambushed under the city.

Sakha was not spared, he was wet, but his nose was stirring, and his nostrils were full of peculiar smells, what kind of water was this, it was the fire oil that had been poured down from the city.

"Not good! Evacuate! Evacuate! ”

Before the words fell, countless torches were raised on the back road of the Eight Banners under the city, reflecting the entire city as if it were day. It turned out that the Ming army had already touched their backs at some point, and Sakha was frightened and ordered to rush over.

But reality did not give them this opportunity, and countless torches were immediately thrown down from the city, and they fell to the ground and ignited the fire all over the ground, and immediately a raging fire broke out. Countless Eight Banners soldiers were engulfed in a sea of fire.

Sakha was more fortunate than his soldiers, and after the soldiers around him were on fire, he quickly jumped away, and the placket of his clothes was stained with sparks, and immediately set the cloth on his body on fire, and hurriedly rolled to the ground several feet away in pain, extinguishing the fire on his body.

Under the fire, Sakha Ling's consciousness was restored, knowing that the other party's Ming army was prepared, and he had already been unable to do anything if he had been tricked, and the only thing he could do at the moment was to escape. Sakha no longer loves to fight, and takes advantage of the chaos to try to avoid the interception of the Ming army......

At the head of Shanhaiguan City, a group of generals cheered. Zu Dashou was expressionless, looking at the Qing soldiers struggling in the sea of fire below, everyone was praising a deputy general surnamed Gu.

"General Gu, this plan is wonderful!"

"Worthy of General Li's subordinates!"

This General Gu was Gu 14, a battalion officer under Li Xin, who arrived at Shanhaiguan three days ago on Li Xin's military order, and brought in the news that Sun Ji was not dead, Hong Chengchou was not dead, and they were all persisting in fighting against the Tartars behind enemy lines.

However, this news was only reported in a small area, except for a few civil officials such as Sun Chengzong, and the vast majority of people were concealed. Because, at the same time that Gu Shishi came to Shanhaiguan, the spy was arrested in the city, and this apprentice was actually a prefect in Shanhaiguan.

This is too incredible, it's just a trip to the Qing army's camp, but how did he become a spy after he came back? And Zhang Tong's judgment that Li Zhifu was a spy was only based on the suspicion of chasing after the wind and shadows, and there was no real evidence at all.

What's more, if the Tartars really want to buy spies, how can they expose their stupid own family? The people in the city are all soldiers, and it is not that they can't see through this, but no one dares to take this responsibility, so even if they know that Governor Li is likely to be wronged, no one dares to stand up and say a word for him.

Gu Shishi, as an outsider, saw farther than those frightened birds in the city, which was not a trick made by the Tartars, and he once thought that Liu Yuliang had suspected more than once in Jinzhou that there were Tartar spies in the city, so he asked Sun Chengzong to build a plan and play a big game with the Tartars.

Therefore, Sun Chengzong ordered that the Li prefect be put in prison, and announced that he would be punished by death on a certain day to pay tribute to those dead Ming soldiers.

Gu Shishijian yì Sun Chengzong ordered his henchmen to secretly Zhang Luo, and strictly monitored the movements of the Qing army every day.

However, Baimi still had a mistake, and in the end, he was escaped by the spy and only caught an errand runner. However, this person has never seen the spy behind the scenes, and all the connections are transmitted by secret letters, and he has never been seen.

In desperation, he had to arrange for the general to pretend to exchange signals with Sakha Ling outside the city, and at the same time Sun Chengzong ordered his own soldiers to secretly open the city wall, and at the same time went out from the east gate of the people and horses that had been arranged, and outflanked Sakha Ling's headquarters on the back road.

As soon as Qiē was so ready, Sakha Xuan really walked into the big pit that had been dug for him a long time ago.

An unknown amount of oil was poured into the city, and the fire burned all night until dawn. During this period, the corpses of the Qing soldiers had long been turned into charred black ashes, and no one was spared.

Zu Dashou personally led the Guanning army out of the city to attack the Sakha camp and won a complete victory in one fell swoop, and the morale of the Qing army in the camp was low, and they were soon beaten and scattered! Overnight, the crisis in the city seemed to be half over.

Gu Shishi's idea of planning was a complete victory, and Sun Chengzong summoned civil and military officials at all levels in the city at the governor's yamen.

Sun Chengzong was carried by the family and sat upright in the middle of the lobby.

"And good news! Sun Jiao, the governor of Ningyuan, and Hong Chengchou, the governor of the four sides, they are not dead! ”

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the hall.

Sun Ji and Hong Chengchou are not dead? This news is too shocking, after the destruction of Ningyuan City, the entire city was burned to ashes by the Tartars, how lucky Sun Ji was not to die. As for Hong Chengchou, the Qing army outside the Qiantun guard in Guangning was even more than three layers inside and three layers outside, with more than 100,000 people, and they escaped alive, but it was not simple.

"The old man knows that you are unbelievable, but this is all a fact, they are in Jinzhou at the moment, and the Three Guards Army is also in Jinzhou, this General Gu can testify on his behalf!"

Sun Chengzong pointed to Gu Shishi, who was standing beside him, and then glanced at everyone in the hall.

"Now, the time has come for us to counterattack! Do you know that the Slave Chief Taiji is dead! Dai Shan is afraid that he will not be able to sit still outside Shanhaiguan as well......"

"Elder Ge, the last general thinks that it is not appropriate for the army to go out of Shanhaiguan lightly at the moment, we have finally stabilized the situation, if the light YÌ troops fall into the Tartar tricks, no one can afford this responsibility!"

It was Zu Dashou who spoke, although he didn't say it directly, but the meaning was obvious, if he was bitten by the Tartars and there was a mistake in the army, it would be equivalent to a mistake in Shanhaiguan. Then the situation that has just stabilized is likely to face dangerous variables again, so he strongly opposes rashly sending troops to counterattack.

"The last general will build yì, regardless of whether the Tartars are withdrawn or not, our army should rely on Shanhaiguan and fight steadily and step by step, which is the best policy! After all, last night's victory in the first battle of the Tartars was a partial division, and their main force of 100,000 was still outside the Shanhai Pass, and with the strength of our army, I am afraid it will be difficult to compete with its field strength. ”

Zu Dashou's successive robberies were echoed by the vast majority of the generals in the hall. Their worries were also inconsistent, thinking that Sun Ge should not have been so hasty. As for General Gu, who resorted to the plan of fire attack, this person spared no effort to encourage Sun Ge Lao to send troops, nothing more than hoping that Ge Lao would send troops to Jinzhou to save Li Xin!
